A few random shots of what we’ve been up to this early spring. Like stylin’ in the snow. And walks on blustery days. Modelling fancy new duds. Karate! Mina is…
We had a rather difficult time getting to Puerto Rico. First we booked a week in March that would have put us there for my birthday. But the day we…
Mina brought home a cold last week, and now Linus has it. He’s home from school today, and is spending most of it on the couch. However, he and Yen…
