Pruning Trees

I went over today to help my mom and Aunt Connie prune the trees lining her fence. I can't believe my aunt had been doing this herself for the past 20 years. That woman is amazing. I hadn't done anything like landscaping since I was painting houses during my summer break from college. I'm glad I don't have to do that for a living - yet. Afterwards, mom and I went down the street for burgers! Deeelicious!

I Have Issues

If this store had been open, I was planning to get this goose for our living room. I thought it would coordinate well with our sofa and color scheme.

Mom's Visit to SF

We dad a kickass dinner at a little Thai restaurant with Mom, Kimberly, and The Hunny up in Noe Valley. We then went back up to Clipper Street for a nightcap and some dessert

Benson, MN

Indy Playing Fetch

Boudreaux's

I really hope I don't ever have to stand in line to buy this stuff.

John Tesh and Oprah Date

I still think the John Tesh and Oprah dating story is pretty amusing and this is what I imagine the end of an evening was like...

Azebeebo!!

Someone somewhere thinks he's #1!!

LLS Giants Game Fundraiser

We had some sweet nosebleed and bleacher seats for the Giants game for the 50 people that showed up for our fundraising party! I could barely make out the "Giants Welcome Team Drury-Lightning" on the scoreboard, but it was there. We raised over $1200 at this event - too bad the Giants lost....

Thank you Leslie

The Borkbergs always come up with some interesting gifts for me on my birthday. I'm pretty sure this one will not get as much use as last year's gift.

Carleton Chemistry Party

We hosted a fantastic crew of Carleton alums as well as current students and even 3 professors during the weeklong ACS conference being held in SF.

Dinner with the Smiths and Ryan

Good times followed by even sweeter dance moves after dinner!

Remembering George

It was great getting together with the GFOG crew at The Washbag on St. Paddy's Day to remember our good friend George.

1st Birthday Dinner

It was a great night in SF for my birthday dinner at home - huge steaks and lots of wine.

The Kings of King Street

Resting after their morning feast and exercise.

2nd Birthday Dinner

Sweet birthday dinner at Morac with great friends!

Pelosi's Visit to SF

I had the opportunity to see Nancy Pelosi speak at the Fairmont Hotel. I thought she was decent, but her eyes never stopped blinking which makes me suspicious. And, she was definitely not as eloquent with her arguments as The Gav was with his.

Chewbacca

I will definitely be looking for this guy at the next Folsom Street Fair!

Item at Ross

Gathering up supplies at Ross for one of our fundraising parties, we came across this interesting little item.

M is for Mrs. Miller Lite

Jenny is going to love using this sweet wine glass on her visits to SF.
