We're now the proud owners of an '03 GMC Sonoma.

Bear in Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota)

This is a photo of a black bear at the bottom of my dad's deck. This was outside is home in Blaine, MN. About 25 miles north of St. Paul/Minneapolis area.

Cool, huh???

Brrr, No more snow please

Yup, Nikki Memorial Day works for me. I'll plan on being around. Not much new around here today. Other than the snow that fell yesterday. Isn't spring suppose to be here already? Worked @ Kenz's meet over the weekend. That was lots of fun. Sat behind the judges and listened to them debated deductions. Took me most of the day saturday to figure out what the heck a Tadump was and why it was such a big deduction. It's when the feet land seperately on the tramps... Luckly, our girl didn't have any of those (at least on double mini). She finished 4th, highest yet on this level of double mini, 6th on Tramp & 7th on floor. Next up is the state meet in 2 weeks. Also, getting ready for our big vacation to Walt Disney World. My countdown clock which is on the computer, says 18 days, 19 hours and 23 minutes until the flight leaves KC. 17 days on the countdown chain @ the Held house hold. Looking foward to seeing Mom, Dad, Grandma & Grandpa over the weekend... Love you all!

As far as I know that would work for me.
Hope all is well with everyone. Tony and I are busy with work and the salons. We are putting in a tanning bed at Sugar Creek location this week. The clients have been asking for this. There is not a convenient one in the area.
Planning on seeing Julie,Eric and Monica Easter Sunday. Meeting them halfway in Columbia. Eric and Monica have started house hunting!!!
Take care and God Bless everyone!!
P.S. Where is spring?????????
Love,
Chris

Home Built Weave

Here's Bryan taking Skye over our home built jump and through the weave poles we built this weekend.

would that work for others too?

If I were to find out if I'm able to do the jewelry party on the Saturday of Memorial weekend, would a few of you be able to join?

Isn't it supposed to be Spring?

Brrrr.... Poor Brady got ready for baseball Saturday in a parka, snow pants & hat as it was SNOWING. "Just how am I supposed to pitch like this?" (I relented on the snow boots.) Luckily the camp found an indoor spot 5 minutes after they started. Then the boys stripped off all those clothes to shorts & t-shirts. We were just glad we weren't part of the polar plunge at Lake Ahquabi were his buddy's mom was that day.

Doing OK in the land of milk & honey. Swamped at work. Big decision today- are red & gold (cherry & butterscotch) dilly bars too gross to serve at our summer Red & Gold gathering? (I had to go buy some so we could taste them.) Mom & Dad, think of the dollars you invested in me to make such important decisions.

The kids are busy counting the days to Disney (24). But shh.... Laurie thinks it's 21.

Nikki- how about maybe Memorial Day????
