2008 in Review

Well, I guess it is time to put up a new post. It is 2009, after all. Thought I'd post some pictures from last year that never made it onto the blog.

January & February brought snow (and the related snow shoveling) March brought the beginnings of spring blooms... In April we visited the Liberty Memorial and the WWI Museum... We took the elevator to the top for some outstanding views of the city... We also visited the Kauffman Garden in April, the trees were painted blue (maybe for the Royals?) May brought flowering trees... ...And a short trip to Palm Springs In June, we took the Jeep off roading... ...where it got nice and dirty!! We also had some landscaping work done and got new patio furniture July was Paris..


In August, Jeff competed in his first Triathlon
...and we visited my family in Minnesota
In September I started knitting again, with some help
October brought a day trip to Des Moines to meet up with a friend. We visited the Botanical Gardens while we were there.
We also had a beautiful weekend for camping. Here is Jeff trying to get a football game on our battery powered TV.October is also when we started our bathroom renovation

Which wrapped up in November
And we wrapped up the year with a wonderful Christmas
