Sorry...

Sorry for the lack of posts.  I just finished up my exams, and now I have a huge deadline on for my dissertation coming up next week.  Why did I decide to come back to school?  Oh well, it will be good to get some stuff out of the way before some of my family comes over!  Woo-hoo!  Less than two weeks and (most of) the Raridens will be here. Can't wait.

Happy Birthday, Katy!

Happy Birthday to one of my favorite Minnesota girls! :)

To the best mom in the world, Jane Rariden!  We are so lucky to have such an amazing mom.  Let's be honest... most people are jealous that you get to be our mom.  It's true! :)  Love you so much!
