Penny in her winter hat playing scrabble with neily and me. Neil manages to smile even though he is suffering through some serious pwnership.

 Emily and her coworker Rebecca came over on Rebecca's tandem bike and these things are sweet.

Jen and I on the bike. Also prominently featured in this photo: my neighbor Ernie's arm. He was riding on the front handlebars, documenting the entire event for posterity.

Also, a video. It appears as though I am biking drunk here. Cars.

 This, in conjunction with a great salad, chicken and a decent glass of wine, tasted great after my long day of running and riding.

 Best part? The whole family came over. There is my dad and grandpa on the couch, inexplicably both wearing pink shirts. I have no problem with pink shirts, but there were a lot of them last night.

Then here are the girls, Jen, mom, grandma and Ashley.

Let's get a group shot! Violet and Penny jump in.

I'm a lucky guy.

 Fatty's Cookies and baked goods

Seriously delicious cookies and brownies. Highlights include peanut butter toffee and oddly, chocolate chip. A bit on the spendy side for cookies, but worth it. David and Tracy are pictured.
 
Ey coffee

Great, local alternative to my favorite, starbucks.
 
Vio and Penny and our bikes

Don't be an ass and drive to the farmer's market. How far is it really from your place.

Justin, my brother, was walking by the house today with his boys, Max and Jake (front).
 
They asked him to take them on a "space walk." So off they went.
 
Proud of myself for snagging those helmets for the dudes' second birthday.
 
That is one of the main jobs of an uncle or aunt: super cool birthday presents.
