Funnel is currently working his very last shift ever at Walgreen’s. 
For almost the whole time we’ve been married, he’s been working the night shift (8 days on /// 6 days off).  That’s meant a lot of nights alone and a lot of days where we might just get to see each other for a couple of hours.  I was [...]

I go through phases of my life where I feel like my emotions are on steroids.  I [...]

Sweet, little Kirpi after her bath. 

Dan and Debbie are Funnel’s parents and they will be married 27 years this summer.

I’ll post wedding pictures of our grandparents sometime as well.  I’m thankful we have so many wonderful, lasting marriages in our family.

I have never been so thankful for the weekend.  Yesterday felt like the very last lap of the 3200 on a hot day, when all your muscles are burning and you don’t care about winning the race.. you just want to be done with it.  (I’m being dramatic, but I made a stupid mistake at work [...]

#  I [...]
