365: Day 210- Back from the Cabin

7/29/14: We packed up and headed back to Sue & Bob's house this morning. Good thing we had the tractor to help haul all the stuff from the cabins up to the cars!

Bye bye, Little Birch! We'll see you next summer...

Stephanie and I wanted an afternoon to hang out by ourselves, so I took a quick shower once we got back and headed into town in Sue's sweet convertible to meet up with her for a day of sister fun!

We went for a walk around Lake Calhoun, and then did some shopping.

We ended the day with dinner in south Minneapolis.

Meanwhile, the kids were spoiled rotten with a fun afternoon spent swimming in a heated pool at the house of Sue & Bob's neighbor.

After baths they donned their aprons to help Grandma make egg salad.

Just another fun day in Minnesota!!

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

The Best of Project 366

2012 is coming to a close and I have officially completed Project 366 ! I managed to take and post and keep track of 365 photos out of 366 total days this year. I only missed one day and it was for a pretty good cause . Believe me, these pictures don't take themselves. I shot just under 7000 pictures this year. Once I got an iPhone in March all of the pictures were taken with my phone (~ 5500 pictures!). The camera on the iPhone is really good, I always have it with me, and I like playing around with the filters and other editing tools available in photography apps like Instagram, Camera+, Diptic, and Gridditor. Since I have put so much time, love and energy into Project 366 I thought I should select a few "Best Of's". I had a great time putting this together, and I hope you enjoy these highlights as well!

The Blog Book is Here!!!

My friend, Tom, told me about a website where you can order a bound copy of your blog. I've had it on my radar for awhile, but I finally just got around to making a book of the first year of entries. It starts with 'Icing on the Cake' , the last entry before they were born, and it ends with Halloween . It turned out better than I could have imagined! I cried when I opened it... One hundred ninety-four pages of love, photos, stories, and milestones!
