Batman brought me to New York again…

Including a stop at Wollman Rink…

My colleague Wade tried to cast a spell on me with the magic wand he carries in his knapsack (for real)…

Our flight out of LaGuardia was cancelled. Took a speeding cab ride to JFK. Got the last seat on the last plane to MSP. Tiny plane, back row and Angie’s seat has no window! We are basically rock stars…

The floor drain in our 120 year-old house backed up…

And here it is after I removed the shower on top of it and snaked it out…

The kids helped me clean the kitchen…

And we cheered for the Vikings throughout the Super Bowl. Maybe next year!

In the last couple of weeks:

Signed a treaty at work…

Annabelle had outpatient ear surgery for tubes at Children’s Hospital (client). The staff there is just great. Let her bring her car back to her room, even. And no complications is even better…

The “twins” now weigh only four pounds apart. They’re continually adorable…

And trouble…

The brothers trade off loving each other and fighting, too…

Oh, I had a lovely time at the dentist. No cavities, which earned me a high-five from the dentist. In your face, plaque…

The neighbor’s one dead Christmas tree turned into two…and then into three…

And a trip to New York. The Grand Hyatt is becoming a favorite hotel. The rooms have been completely revamped. It feels very “W” there now. And the views of Grand Central are truly special…

Taxis and ant people!

And I took Grant bowling…

Batman took a trip to our nation’s capital…

Holy printing press, Batman!

It snowed…

The kids ate an entire box of macaroni and cheese…

“Sorry Mario, but your princess is in another castle…”

Annabelle and I took Grant to school…

Then we headed to Iowa for Thanksgiving. Lots of cousin time…

The kill Uncle AJ game…

The whole family hit Disney on Ice…

Grant on my lap…

Grayson on my lap…

Annabelle on my lap…

Ashlynn on my lap…

The view on Thanksgiving morning…

What the boys thought…

And a bonus, I saw Santa coming in late for work…

Enjoyed the cool fall night with my wife around the fire…

Took the boys bike riding…

Let the cheerleader eat some leaves…

Played baseball with the eldest child…

While the youngest and middle child gave the truck a tune-up…

Caught the Vikings game with my group of guy friends. It’s no coincidence we all enjoy eating animals…

Last week Grant asked me to bring two Batman figures (Batmen?) to New York…

A stellar win for our U.S. Army client at the PR News Platinum Awards…

And a great week of Weber Shandwick Digital Leadership Meetings, both formal and informal…

And home in time for Grant’s last soccer game of the season…

Breakfast with Harry Beckwith, author of Selling the Invisible and Unthinking, thanks to Sheepish Design…

And enjoyed the first Speak: Church Communications Conference…

It was a staycation this week, so I had ample opportunities to play with the kids…

We took Grayson to preschool orientation…

Took Grant to soccer…

Got all dressed up for the Iowa State gamewatch — to watch the Cyclones beat the Hawkeyes! YES!

And taught the boys how to ride bikes…

We took Grant to the opening preseason Minnesota Vikings game (and first game back at the Metrodome since the roof collapsed)…

Had some fun with the kidz…

This is a bus stop…

This is a “meeting place”…

I went to New York for work, and Jenny tagged along…

And so did these yahoos…

And so did Batman…

And a shot of Ground Zero just before Hurricane Irene…

Meanwhile, the kids were perfectly happy at Nana and Papa’s…

And we discovered these Vikings upon returning home…

In MIMA, Chaska, Last Week in Pictures on August 24, 2011 at 11:29 am

My team at work took a boat cruise…

I attended the MIMA event on mobile trends (yes, apparently mobile has not yet “arrived” as a trend)…

Arrived too early so enjoyed some coffee on the riverfront…

Grant’s soccer team has more fun off the field than on…

The kids picked out some enthralling bedtime stories…

I performed my weekly duty of gluing back together cheaply-made Transformers…

We took the kids to Chaska’s annual Touch a Truck…
