UPDATE: Boys 2009

I love the sequence of this photo....budding, budded and "de"budded...





Friday's are awesome in SO many ways. For most of us the weekend has arrived. For me, it means I get to have lunch with my boys and spend the afternoon with them after their naps. LOVE IT!!! Today, we had a little picnic in the front yard and then I took some photos post lunch. Sutton and Shaeffer still for some reason feel the need to say, "cheese" everytime I pull out my camera. I'm really trying to break that habit because I seem to always catch them with some goffy expression.

Have a wonderful LONG weekend with your friends and family! Happy Memorial Day early!

Peace,
BD

I'm truly beginning to wonder if I'm jumping on another bandwagon? First it was the MN Twins, then it was the "Juicy Lucy," next came Mountain Smith backpacks, then I moved to Chaco's and then for some crazy reason I now have 4 pairs of Croc's, a Facebook account and now this.....TWITTER!!!

I've always been a very vocal person and one to wear my emotions on my sleeves. But this....do you really need to know when I brushed my teeth in preparation for Shannon to read me a bedtime story? I don't believe that it is necessary nor a desire for you to follow my every move however, I do believe that "tweeting" can draw us all together. That through using these social networking sites that we can be encouraged to help each other as needs arise, that we may support each other as one stumbles and that we can rejoice with each other when praises need to be sung!

So, with that said....I'll be tweeting on a regular basis. Look me up on Twitter.

I'm on to go meet with my friend Steve this morning.....hoping the winds won't blow us away today (upto 40 mph i heard).

Peace,
BD

K+D=Med School

Last week I had the "bestest" time running around downtown Minneapolis with my new friends Kalie & Danny. Ok, seriously....these 2 are getting married this summer and they are BOTH, yes BOTH just finishing up their first year of Medical School at the University of Minnesota. Can you imagine the conversations around their kitchen table in a few years...It will be like an entire season of Grey's Anatomy. My wife and her friend Lynn will probably want to move in with them so they don't have to Tivo their Thursday night program (Grey's, that is) any longer.
We were blessed with awesome weather to walk around the warehouse district in downtown MPLS. I just love this area to play around in and if I win the lottery someday, I will be buying a loft (my urban cabin if you will). Kalie and Danny were SO cute laughing, telling stories and just allowing me to move them from spot to spot for their e-session. Thanks again for a great night....enjoy your photos and I look forward spending your wedding day with you!

Peace,
