Bitter & Sweet


Our mouse chasing crew

It is Always a bit of a challenge to leave the city and come back to the farm, especially when returning from Minneapolis. We don't know Milwaukee enough to have that feel familiar when we visit, but Minneapolis feels like home in so many ways that it is hard to leave.

Each year we've been here it gets easier as we have friends here now (though those took a while to find) and our little farm is more and more home as we've done improvments all over the outside to make it "ours" (and so far the landlord doesn't mind). And of course this is the only house Trinity knows as home. 


Time to eat peas

It is a joy to watch her run outside with complete freedom to be a kid. She plays with the outside animals, has a very loyal dog that comes to her when she whistles and even when she doesn't, veggies she eats from the plant & fruit she can pick herself. Riding the lawn mower with daddy is a MUST in her mind.
I often looked at this place through her eyes whenever I question our move from all things wonderful and familiar to a land of strangness and vast expanses without buildings or good ethnic resturants...







OHHH And for those who Minneasotans that want to know.. YES! Trinity is growing up a Packer's fan. It is just unavoidable around here.. Sorry ;-)
