This picture is from a couple months ago.  Carrie and I were at Kohl's trying to find sunglasses.  Who can resist a giant pink bow headband???

How many forehead wrinkles can you count?

This is for you Amy!

This picture terrifies me

Family dinner was awesome!  Lots of laughs!  Lots of blackmail photos taken.  I will post more this weekend.

Lovely fall

I just got back from my TWS (The Wildlife Society) Conference in Salt Lake City, UT.  It was an amazing trip.  I had lots of opportunities to attend workshops, job fairs, mentoring sessions, symposiums, mixers, etc -it was go, go, go from 8:30am until 8 or 9 at night. 

My mom and little brother Seth met me in Salt Lake on Saturday before the conference started.  It was SO FUN hanging out with them that day, even for just a short time.

When I arrived back home (at midnight), Skott was already at work but I found these throughout the house:

upstairs in office

in the bathroom

in the living room

on the dresser in the bedroom

on kitchen table

Skott went out to the park and collected a bunch of fall foliage, then came home and arranged them all!  I was so impressed!  (At first I thought he had bought them).  It was the sweetest thing.

Last week my Dad and Sherry got a new addition to their farm -a baby nubian goat.  Skott has never seen a baby goat before so we went out to visit.  I think it is about three days old in this picture.  It is so cute and will follow you around, trying to buck and run.

you can see that the goat is barely bigger than the cat

Skott just completed this project refinishing a trunk for Carrie to use as a coffee table.  Unfortunately, we didn't get "before" picutres, but this truck was very rusty and painted black, with some silverish/grey paint on parts of it.... it was pretty rough.  I thought it turned out beautiful! 


 While I was in SLC, Skott attended Sherry's daughter's wedding up north near St Croix.  These are some beautiful shots he captured up there.  (There were many, many more but this post is already long).

  These pictures were taken along Skott's bicycle route in Carson Park.

I hope everyone is having an enjoyable fall!
