When we were in Minnesota for Christmas my dad took Linus and Liam out for a ride in one of our old sleds.

I posted a bunch of photos from the past two months:

We spent a week in Minnesota visiting friends and family for Christmas and then…

went to Wisconsin for a week to spend some time with Mandy’s family, and then…

went to Kansas City for Annie and Victor’s New Year’s weekend wedding on our way home.

I uploaded some miscellaneous photos of Linus and Liam from throughout July.

Mollie, Chris, Annika and Gabriel came to visit for a few days  on their way to Milwaukee.

Mandy, Liam and I spent a week in Minnesota visiting my friends and family.  Most of the week was spent at my folk’s cabin on Bay Lake.  Liam had his first swim in a lake, his first pontoon boat ride, and his first mosquito bites. Monica, Wuy and Linus joined us at the end of the trip.

Mandy and Liam flew to Milwaukee so RedStart could participate in the Lakefront Festival of Arts and so Liam could spend some time with his Grandparents.

Miscellaneous photos from Liam’s first three months including visits from Grandma and Grandpa

Photos from the first two weeks of Liam’s life.

Mandy, Monica, Wuy and I spent a week at Bay Lake with my folks.

My grandpa Jack was stationed in England as a B-17 mechanic during World War II.   I have always really liked this photo, but it has not aged well.  Jack is standing on the wing with his hands on his hips, third from the right.  There is a handwritten note on the back:

487 Bomb Group
836 Bomb Squad.
England 1945

I believe the photo was taken at Lavenham Army Air Force Station 137 in Suffolk, England.  The plane is a B-17G, number 44-8039.
