Movember

Here is my roommate Scott at the end of a wonderful Movember. Nice mo, bro.

O Tannenbaum

Wie treu sind deine Blätter!

It's... a new car!

Well, maybe not quite a new car, but at least it's a used car! It's, in fact, the first car I've ever bought! Always nice to have a new TOYota.

A New Beginning

An inspiring quote outside the church that Hope may soon purchase.

Planking

Camille, who came in with the top bowling score, planked her victory in style!

Shelf

I built this myshelf!

Turkey Day

My fam is at the table, already eating, but there's no fam in here!

Christmas Lights

I felt led to put up the lights again this year.

Hi ho policy mountain!

Here is the system I devised for tracking policy reviews at work. This idea was inspired by an evil man.

Bluegrass Monday

Bluegrass at the 331 Club to celebrate Jairus! (He was visiting, it's not like his daughter was raised from the dead.) Notice all of our water glasses... the waitress loved us!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

The flash really makes the snow coming down a pretty cool effect.

Making Lefse

Making lefse and doing it rightse!

Lookin' Gouda in a Suit

My penalty for the Vikings losing by so much... suit with a cheese tie on a casual Friday. At least I'm looking gouda!

Black and Red

When the cards are on the table, these are the only two colors that matter! Good thing I don't have deuteranopia.

So Fresh, So Clean

I cast out all the dirt!

Home Sweet Home

Finally to return to a state of sanity.

Curly Field

My inaugural trip to Curly Field. At least there was a Viking in front of me to help console me.

Recessed Lighting

Am I just egging on another great depression?

Kiwi on Vacation

Cilla came back for a visit and we were all happy to see her again. I'm surprised a kiwi got through customs (usually fruit and produce is not allowed)!

Make a wish!

The ultimate time to make a wish.

TGIT

First Thursday Night Football of the season! TGIT!

First Snow

Flecks of snow in the light of James' minivan. nICE!

Common Connection

Me: "Can you crack the code of the common correlation of the components in this camera capture?"
You: "Sí."
(Coke, Capellini, Chicken, Cranberry apple walnut salad, Cupcake)

Close Up

Can you guess what this close-up image is? If you guess correctly, I will furnace a very nice prize.

Squirrel Hole

Good luck getting in now, Mr. Squirrel! Now I know why there was scratching on my ceiling last winter driving me nuts!

Mr. and Mrs. Longley

Shortly after they were both Longleys.

Shawshank

Only thing that would have made this movie better is if I had been watching it in Zihuatanejo!

Mongo's

To give Louis a farewell, we (the roommates) went to Mongo's Grill in Maple Grove. We tried to give Louis a 7-bowl eating contest but we didn't give him enough notice. Next time you come, Louis, you'll have to do this challenge.

Palindrome Date!

No, I didn't go on a date with Hannah or Elle.

Pump it up!

Ran my gas tank almost dry today--my tank only holds 18 gallons! That's what I call a close stall!
