Cheese

Ya know... there ain't nothing like a good cheese plate.

At last

Spring in Minnesota! The trees are blossoming. 

Of course, we were just in Pasadena, where giant roses grow on every curb.

Pie time

Baker's Square has a free kids-make-a-pie night thing every month. It's Ellen's favorite restaurant for this reason. She's joined by a friend in pie-making this time.

The princess in her castle

Ellen found the Cinderella dress we hid (not very well) in her closet. She's so happy to have mommy & daddy back. And a new princess dress. I won't ask her which makes her happier.

Things to come

We rented a house! It's purty, ain't it? Just one month until we move.

Kawaii

Trying out Pinkberry frozen yogurt in Pasadena. At a lot of these places, the decor seems geared to appeal to teenage Japanese girls.

Working lunch

At a Thai restaurant in Downey, CA, Rachel preps for her job interview. The pad see yew was good, and so was the interview.
