An eventful week in March......

Ben and his friend Jenn made a quick trip home Friday nite and spent the nite with us. We enjoyed a nice early supper together before they headed home on Saturday evening.
Ben brought Memphis along...this is what he thinks of our dog Ralph. This is his first time to actually have an encounter with Ralph...not sure who was more afraid. Memphis seemed to gain Ralph's respect!


The trees on the golf course have "icicle skirts" on them. You can see the water in Milnor has gone down significantly.


The golf club house still looks flooded though, even though the water has receded alot. We "missed out" on the sandbagging in town while we were gone. We sure appreciate the efforts of many who spent hours keeping ahead of the water. Our house was just fine when we arrived home.


This is a couple shots of the water south of Fargo!




It was quite cloudy as we flew in to Fargo, so we weren't able to get very good pictures, but on this one you can see pretty well how swollen the Red River is.


We enjoyed a fun week with Mike, Amanda, Dane and Nora. We celebrated Dane's 3rd birthday while we were there. Amanda has several pictures of his birthday on her blog. That meant Dane got several new toys. From the assortment of pictures you may not be able to tell who was having more fun...Grampy and Grammy, Mommy and Daddy or Dane and Nora! Thanks for a great time and we miss you all!
