We spent Memorial Day weekend in Boston as an add on to one of Tim's work trips. We enjoyed fresh sea food and exploring the city.

Tim met up with friends from high school this summer and hiked Long's Peak in Colorado.

We moved the piano Erin grew up playing on from Canby to Sioux Falls on a hot sweaty day in August. As soon as it was situated, she broke the piano in with her classic rendition of the Hokey Pokey. It has been fun having an instrument in the house!

We love a good fair! We visited the Turner County Fair in South Dakota for the first time, and we made our annual trip to the MN State Fair at the end of August.

We spent two weeks in September, including our first anniversary, traveling to Istanbul, Santorini, London and Amsterdam.
We enjoyed watching whirling dervishes, relaxing on the beach, and eating Dutch pancakes. A tour of the Buckingham Palace State Rooms in London was a definite highlight!

Tim built a set of three planters this spring, and we filled them with tomato plants and herbs. We enjoyed lots of Caprese salad and we froze several quarts of tomato sauce over the summer and fall.
This fall we kept our green thumbs tuned up and spent a few weekends in Canby helping out with harvest.
Additional Hijinks
Additional Hijinks
Throughout the year, we enjoyed cross country skiing, coaxing a stray cat to chase away the rabbits in our yard, weaving bacon blankets, playing dead, and enjoying the company of friends.
We are blessed with satisfying work, wonderful friends, and loving family. Life is good and we consider ourselves lucky kids.
Wishing you and yours the same in 2016!
