Things have changed SO MUCH in the last 2 weeks! Tom and I both had our second vaccines, we had a snow storm and today it was 60 degrees. Kay quit gymnastics with only 4 meets left to go (lots of drama and arguing with the coaches for a long long long week). Billy might have a girl friend (he gets all smiley when he's playing video games with her - at the very least he likes her. She's Master Franklins daughter Tyra so...he'd better play his cards straight). Jimmy started playing D line in practice and is GETTING noticed! Maui is back to loving walks and being naughty. As always, never a dull moment with the LoudAmericans. XOXOX T& T

Tracy and Wendy went hiking (in a snow storm) to find Zug Zug, a art installation of a caveman in "ice". It randomly showed up in Theo Worth park and finding him as been all the rage this winter in MPLS.

Newest menu item - corned venison with homemade thousand island and saucerkraut for amazing reubens. with Kay bait (apple fennel salad of course)

1 week after finding Zug Zug, we set off to find Zarah, the female cavewoman/mom in Crosby Farm Park. It was 50 degrees LITERALLY 7 days later. Crazy

Snow melting and signs of spring

Crosby Park Farm hike, one side of the Mississippi is sand, the other snow

Maui being naughty when we weren't looking

Wendy with Zarah and baby

That can't be comfortable

Tracy's second dose, easy peasy lemon squeeze

Needless to say, that snow man doesn't exist anymore

Beautiful Mississippi river walk

I guess I liked the wine tasting SO MUCH I thought I'd include it in this blog as well....
