Winter wasn’t so bad

 Winter felt very long. We didn’t take a mega tropical trip this year and instead focused on some local adventures and saving money. In retrospect, this felt like a poor choice but! we managed to find ways to have a lot of fun. 

We had Northern Lights in the Twin Cities. 

Bowie swam hard with the MN Flyers.

Bowie had his first double date.

We celebrated the holidays with friends.

I went curling for the first time.

The boys got very into local wrestling.


We protested the presence of ICE in MN.

Josh and I took a weekend vacay to Stillwater during their Ice Festival.


Bowie was in his first play as 'Sidney' in Murder on the 518.

We escaped this room.


We celebrated Luke and Lauren's new home with the Dear Hearts.

I spent a lot of time with these amazing women.

We went with Rob and Sarah to Chicago to see The Hives and The Chats. We got to hang with Marc and Janice and visit Janice at The Field Museum.

Bowie and I spent an epic day at the Mall of America.

Most importantly: We welcome Cosmo into our family!

Halloween 2025

 Bowie was Santa and nailed it at his Spooky Sunday piano recital. The performance was at Bauhaus Brewery which was made over with an under the sea art installation. 





Josh was the motorcycle guy from I Think You Should Leave and I was a mod gal.




Then we went to the best Peewee’s Playhouse themed party at Kent and Lisa’s. They are the best hosts. There was live band karaoke and a Cake cover band and I loved all of it.
