8/5/08 – Ashlee plucks a ginormous eggplant from her garden. Check out the huge eggplant bushes covering up my holly in the background. She not only had to fertilize, water, and repell bugs. She also had to repell vegetable eating critters including our youngest dog who devoured a patch of carrots and brussell sprouts in a single sitting. By the way the eggplant was delicious. We just ate it grilled, next time we are going to have eggplant parmesan.

7/4/08 – We celebrated the Fourth with Danny at the Lisle Eyes To The Sky Balloon Festival. It was really cool to see the hot air balloons launch and glow. We had a great time.

2/1/08 – Ashlee stops working and officially becomes a great stay at home mom.

6/13/04 – Ashlee visits me for the first time in Chicago. We pose (as twins) in front of a shiny sculpture called the cloud.
