Tree! (nest included)

We got a Christmas tree, a spunky little guy. Then we had to make a tree stand! THEN, finally.... everything is set. And we didn't have any official decorations, so we had to make do.

October Photos!

Nope, that's not Dan Hudson, that's his Chicago Doppleganger!





We biked AROUND A LAKE!! a few minutes after this photo! (it was a little lake.)

The new bike: (she is VERY fancy) Her name (tentatively, no birthcertificate yet) Is Corrine Maxine.. we've only had a few rides so far.

Wafflemonster in the kitchen:Joey and Lance (lance is the male version of me-- sort of)

The Chickens!

I didn't get a good solo picture of each one, but....


Here are Matisse, Cafe AuLait, La Negra, and Big Brown

i only got one good picture, I promise we were in Kentucky, not just a parking lot

Massachusetts and Kentucky!

This overlooks the Connecticut River!-- it was beautiful!




This was the next weekend: This is near the children's the museum, I was hanging out Joey's friend, Lance, we found this friend.


I made everyone come back!

This is the only nice picture I took at the wedding.. sorry.

This happened before KY and Mass!

We went on a "treacherous hike" (it was pretty steep) another hike checked off of the list from:




I left the camera in the car... but this is what the internet says it looks like:







This is what joey looked like after the hike, book in hand:

Not the best photos I've taken: the new apartment!!

Just (finally!) got around to adding some new pictures.... I haven't taken too many pictures with my camera lately, a lot of these are from a friend's camera.

BUT I just walked home with a nice spring breeze no snow in sight, only a cardigan(a nice thick cardigan, but only a cardigan nonetheless!







Baking Friendship Bread: We must have used 2 lbs of sugar, 6 lbs of flour, 2 gallons of milk, four dozen eggs.... that little box of sugar was just not enough... Loaf number one of the Friendship bread: Cosme(Joey's roommate) Decided that this was too big an event to not document (really,we used A LOT of Sugar Flour Milk, etc) We were afraid the bread would fill the whole oven! (it didn't)
We only had two loaves.
This was a wonderful little place called the Pump Station in Albany, NY I came down for a weeklong course and perused the local brewery:
Speaking of brews: we got Yuenglin once(not my idea), but I ended up having left over beer and made some beer bread (a la Alton Brown's Recipe, too!)

I was recently cruising around Cortland--- (there was also Home-Tapped and Boiled Maple Syrup this day! in nearby Virgil, NY. While i wandered around Cortland (there was a run that morning), I found this catnapping and trying on shoes)
