 Minnesota Twins Winter Caravan 2012 included:

Ben Revere and Rene Tosoni, Twins Legend Tony Oliva, and Twins announcer Dick Bremer.

We were at Target Field when he made the catch against the Orioles on August 24, 2011!
What an awesome memory for him to share with Ben.

Day 23 - January 23, 2012

CSW @ Cole's school this week!

Monday = Wacky Tacky Day

2 different socks

Old-Man Brett Favre jersey

Sweatband

70's era Bemidji boys basketball warmup pants

Too-much gel hair

(hair done when he got to school so it wouldn't get 'ruined' by his winter hat!)

Day 22 - January 22, 2012

Last night Cole played basketball during the men's college basketball game.

It is so much fun to watch the little guys run around on the same court as 6'5"+ college kids!

It made me realize he is growing up faster than I want him to.

In perspective he is over half-way to college :(

Day 21 - January 21, 2012

The end of the world must be near....

The cats are sitting next to each other and not hissing or batting at the other!

It's a good thing they are both completely obsessed with watching the birds out the window when it is too cold to go outside!

Day 20 - January 20, 2012

Friday....

Day 19 - January 19, 2012

Long day, again... Woohoo!

Still had time to make peach smoothies for me and my honey.

Little boy wrinkled his nose which means more for us!

Yummo!

Day 18 - January 18, 2012

Cole loves his Mohawk hat!! Not only is it 10-year-old-boy fashionable but it comes in handy when it is -22 degrees outside!

Day 17 - January 17, 2012

This is my first night of 'almost' not getting a picture posted. I was busy with basketball, back to work, home, dinner, 5th grade homework, and then 1 1/2 hours working on two seperate projects for Cole's school. Whew!

Day 16 - January 16, 2012

I am blessed that what you see below is what I get to see out my kitchen window. We feed the birds suet and seed in the winter. I can tell you this about our birds, they are more accurate than the Weather Channel! If there is going to be a cold snap or a snowstorm these little guys sure let me know! Our feeders have been known to be completely emptied during one days worth of daylight... that's a lot of seed!

This little guy hung around for a while. I got a few pictures but they are a tad bit fuzzy because it through the window and screen. I would have moved to a different window but was afraid I would scare him off. There is something calming about just watching the birds.

Day 15 - January 15, 2012

Sunday night football!

(He was cheering for the Giants and they won)

More excitingly it was sock matching night!

Cole has turned sock matching into a 'basketball' game of sorts.

He matches and rolls the socks then shoots them into the hamper, you can see the pile in the picture!



My view of him from the treadmill.



I've learned over the years if I want something cleaned it has to be a game.
