introducing maggie

exciting news! minnesota's brother and sister-in-law had a baby girl, magdelene rachael, on july 13. the little bundle of joy is their first child, so she's sure to bring the family new experiences and lots of happiness.

welcome to the world, maggie!



two days old and already she's making lovely faces.

in other news, we spent the day in lovely corvallis, oregon, last weekend. mostly we drove around checking out adorable little bungalows and wandering the campus, but we also took time to visit a pizza place, a bakery and an ice cream shop. here we are in front of an enormous abstract sculpture on the campus grounds.



we're hope you're enjoying summer and all that life has to offer. as always, we're sending lots of love and hugs across the miles....the girlz
