Are you looking at Jodi's flowers?

Jodi's lilies are looking so good that they would feel at home in Katie and Holger's yard.

What I am listening to this week...

Maia Hirasawa:

Japanese father, Swedish mother and a whole lot of talent.




I love her voice. I am tickled by her odd pronunciations and occasional wrong tenses. Her over the top voice is really upbeat.

For our foreign cousins... do you ever go to Sweden? If so take a picture of Gothenburg for us.

Mama don't take my 12 megapixel away...


Kodak has announced that they will no longer make Kodachrome film. If Paul Simon were dead, he would roll over in his grave. And if you are too young for the Paul Simon reference:

Kick it out!


For last night's Heart concert, we had lawn seats. The pavilion is very small, so the view is good no matter where you sit. To prove that we had a great view, Jodi took this picture so that you could experience the sights with us. If you ever want to feel like a giggling 14 year old again, just have some poor girl sit in front of you with her whale tail fully exposed.

Trace and Kristina treated Jodi and I to a Heart Concert last night at the LC in Columbus. I have to tell you that it was one of the better concerts that I have seen in the last few years. Even though the songs were more than 20 and 30 years old, they sounded fresh. Ann Wilson still belts out the songs with incredible power and the band really rocked.

Oh, and Sushi at the Blue Ginger to start the evening off! That is how to spend a Saturday night! Consider yourself schooled.

They opened with Barracuda - Enjoy...

I'd rather dance with you

If you don't absolutely love this video, I feel really sorry for you...





I really love the Kings of Convenience & just rediscovered this video.

Hello again!

Hello my dears! :O)
I was so embarrassed when I noticed that there were so many new posts and comments in the blog... until that, I thought I'd get an email as soon as something happens here. So please forgive me that I was absent for so long.
Tim, I love your new blog with all your books! I'm gonne think of one myself. And yes, our arrangements for the wedding are all working out well and I'm really really looking forward to August... I can't even tell you. If you like to, you can have a look at our homepage at a new, there are pictures now and a video (you don't have to understand German): www.hochzeit-des-jahrhunderts.de . Also, I was at the barber and this is how my hair is going to look like (you have to look at the bottom cause I don't manage to go on writing under the pictures):
We hope to be proud lessees (right word?) of the apartment of our dreams in two weeks.
There are so many news and stories and plans to tell, we are all very busy, but I don't want to do it here... lack of privacy. But how are you doing?
@ Judee: we got Tom's and your letter, thank you very much (especially from my parents)! And you don't have to be embarrassed because of your try at German (I don't always know what I'm telling either... often I know a word but I don't know what it relly means to native speakers, you understand what I want to say?)but nevertheless it was really funny reading your post! I corrected the text into real German, and then I used the tool to translate this text back into English, here it is, maybe now you get the feeling:
"Jasmin, I wanted you in the blog on German welcome. I can only with the translation tools make the tim blog has put in place. I count the days until your wedding and it does not last much longer. I rise again soon." ;) but thank you a lot for welcoming me so friendly! I'm gonna write you an email soon and respond to all the things you told me.
And could somebody explain these dancing-pictures to me?
So see you soon, I'm going to sleep now,
Jasmin :O)
ps: Tim, I found a title: Superbride me- the truth about getting married
and pps: the invitations are coming soon (translation included)

You asked for them....

Jodi really does belly dance! And you were beginning to think that I was making the entire story up.

One picture says a thousand words!


Jonathan took this picture of Papa the other day sitting in front of his PC. He never even knew his picture was being taken.
