We had our first Wiktor/Case family vacation this summer; destination – Lake Tahoe. In an effort to keep this brief, here’s our Top Ten of Tahoe: 10. Photog – Photography that is. Many of us seem to have the photog bug and it was the perfect setting to snap away. Credit to Mike for many…
Sweet summer
Warm breezes, the smell of salt water, sipping on some sweet treats – sounds like summer is in full swing! Phil had last week off so we took advantage of his free time and the glorious Southern California weather and went on some baby friendly adventures — no extreme hiking in Sophia’s future quite yet….
Pretzel-palooza
At the request of someone in the house who enjoys a good pretzel with his beer, the Wiktors decided to have a May-toberfest complete with beer from boots, sauerkraut, and of course, fresh hot pretzels. Utilizing the latest and greatest in pretzel making technology (Kitchen-aid mixer) and a recipe pilfered from someone’s food blog, we…
May Days
It’s hard to believe June is right around the corner and even harder to believe Sophia is a month old. In between the late night feedings, diaper changes and the occasional fussy period that comes along with a newborn, we were visited by two sets of grandparents. First, Bill and Elaine visited when Sophia was…
Hello world!
Sophia Rose came screaming into the world and our lives on Wednesday, April 27th at 9:48am. She weighed in at 6lbs 15oz and was 18 inches long. Phil and I were happy to welcome her and thrilled that she waited to make her debut until Phil returned home. We are so lucky to have our…
Great Expectations
Wow – the Wiktors have been slacking on their posts! Before things get really busy around here I thought it was time to catch up. I also happen to have some free time on my hands as I patiently wait for the arrival of some pretty important belated birthday gifts. The first part of 2011…
Merry and Bright
It was a beautiful white Christmas in Minnesota and such a blessing to be surrounded by so much love during the holidays. The season was kicked off with the Case/Wiktor holiday party. Despite all the months of planning, days of cooking and hours of last minute preparations it is always a huge success and this…
+ ONE
That’s what the Wiktors will be soon! We are expecting a baby girl – Sophia Rose. So far the first 23 weeks of pregnancy have treated Meredith great; lets hope the trend continues. The holidays are over so now it’s time to kick baby preparations into full gear. Stay tuned for baby Wiktor’s debut in…
Fallish
We wrapped up October by doing what everyone should do around Halloween — carve pumpkins! We had a lot of trick-or-treaters and were cleaned out after an hour or so. November brought more visitors to Case de Wiktor. Kathy arrived for a week long visit to celebrate her and Carolyn’s birthday month. During her visit…
Full House
The house was bursting at the seems as visitors from across the globe (or at least some visitors that have been around the globe) flew in for a few days. Mike and Heather decided to make San Diego the last stop on their 10 month, global adventure; Rick also flew in on Friday from Breckenridge…
