A Smorgasbord of Things

It’s been quite a few weeks in the Dill household! And I have smorgasbord of blessings and photos to share with you.

1. Poppy finished his radiation treatment one week ago, and overall he had minimal side effects throughout the process after that rough first day. Thank you for your prayers! In a couple of months they will do a scan to see how the radiation treatment worked – continued prayers would be appreciated.

2. Mother Olga came to Grand Forks, North Dakota for our parish mission. Of course, it was a week full of graces. You can listen to 3 of her 4 talks here. 

3. My brother and sister, Michael and Rachel Dill, had a beautiful baby girl on April 3rd. Welcome to the world, Sophia Eleanor!

Onto the rest of the photos that have been hiding away on my camera!

Mardi Gras menu: New York steak with red wine and portobello mushroom sauce, scalloped potatoes and baked asparagus with parmesan.

Josh is clearly enjoying.

Chili cook off! Ashlie’s west coast chili. Didn’t bring home the prize, but it is delicious.

White out conditions on Josh’s way to work a few weeks back.

Surprise! We’re having a baby! We’re 7 weeks now 🙂 New picture to come soon.

At Little Bangkok. Thai iced tea.

French toast roll ups and fruit,

Mother visits ND!

Love seeing our Blue Flash going up the stairs of St Mike’s

Blizzard on Monday March 31. I wish it was an early April Fools joke. But a joke it was not.

Christine truly captured the essence of Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati

I think Christine thought she was out of the shot – haha! 🙂

A wonderful impromptu dinner: pork curry and fry bread, strawberries, tea and bruschetta.

Asking for the prayers of our Blessed Mother.

This particular drift of snow was appx 2-3 feet deep.

Just after our Subaru got stuck and a good Samaritan pulled us out!
