Father's Day 2009

Here is Dad doing what all Dad's love best--talking to his children on Father's day. Thanks for all the phone calls. He loved hearing from each of you!

"Bee-ing a Good Dad"

We could not resist buying this hat at the Farmer's Market yesterday. We have been considering becoming beekeepers and getting a hive started in our backyard. You know, help the environment by providing a good home to bees and letting them do their important work of pollination and honey making. The man at the market was wearing this hat and we had to have it. Lizzy, you of course, will always have first dibs on all things "bee", so if you need it at anytime, it is yours. But in the meantime, we keep it to inspire us to learn more about beekeeping.

Ms. Frizzle's Magic School Bus goes to the Library

Happy Halloween 2007!! Mom had the brillant idea of being Ms. Frizzle, not the science teacher, the Library Science teacher. Not going into the earth, or the human body, but into the world of books and libraries!! Earrings have small book photos, dress has book prints glued on and shoes have small books tied to them--just like Ms. Frizzle on her adventures. As usual, I couldn't have done it without Dad---I had the idea, got the photos ready and he produced them and spray mounted them on me. What a team! It would have been better if I had a red frizzy wig. It was a fun day at school.

The Happy Couple

Here they are only minutes later---no longer just girlfriend and boyfriend, but now a committed couple with a whole life ahead of them--together for always. Good luck Dan and Caitlin. We are so happy for you.

The Question

The famous luminarias that formed that important question--or was it a statement? Dan is forever indebted to Rachel and Emma for getting these set up that night--on cue.

The Engagement

How could we not have posted these before??? The fateful day--August 26, 2007. It will live forever in history.

At last, photos of our Yosemite trip.

Here are four shots of our trip in September 2007 for Dad's birthday. Enjoy!
