Hannah came and paged in the Senate about a month ago. Here she is with our State Senator and myself in the well of the Senate. Dad had opened the Senate in prayer that morning, but unfortunately he had to leave before we were able to take this picture.

Bow Tie Day at the Maine State Senate!

The idea stemmed from one of the Senators who has been wearing bow ties for the last 40 years. He brought in about 50 bow ties for Senators and staff to wear for the day. We recessed for about 15 minutes so that I could take this picture from the gallery. All but 5 Senators joined in and quite a bit of the staff joined in as well.

The only unfortunate thing about being a photographer is that you never get to be in the photos. Thankfully I was able to grab someone to take this picture of myself along with the other chamber staff.

Pizza Time!

Last Saturday, Rob, Morgan and Bridger came over for dinner. Rob likes to make gourmet pizzas so we had him over to show us how he makes them.

This pizza we were making has bbq sauce with apple slices on top of that, then we had chicken, mozzarella and cheddar cheese and bacon on top! Fantastico!!

Our 4 scrumptious pizzas along with some quesadillas in the background! Dig in!!

Came home from work the other day to see Asa with this 14 inch bass. He Josiah and Levi had gone out in the canoe before supper. They crack me up how crazy they are about fishing.

Gone Fishing!

I took Hannah, Josiah, Asa and Levi fishing with the Morrells and Sen. Trahan the other day. The Fish and Game club stocks this quarry every year with brook trout and they only allow ages 16 and under to go fishing here. Hannah caught two and Levi and Asa caught one. Poor Josiah the fishing enthusiast came home empty handed.
