Max's Doppelganger

This picture looks exactly like Max. But it's my brother. Crazy, right?

I said I'd post old 80s pictures of myself, and I figure that includes my nuclear family, so above you get Uncle Dave. I have some even more embarrassing ones (think Bill Cosby sweaters and poofy hair), but my scanner is acting up, so it will take some finagling.

We are in Michigan for our last weekend at the cottage. It's a bittersweet feeling. I will miss our favorite dinner place, the Holland Farmers Market, Chicken Scratch Farm, the quietness. But, I also am happy to start being present in Chicago. Fall is my favorite time of year and a great time to be at home. It's time to get the chimney cleaned, the firewood ordered, the stove going full steam ahead.

Here is a small reminder that I'm posting every day for a month to raise money for Healthy Schools Campaign. We're continuing to plug away, but I had no donations today, and would love some more! If you'd like to help the cause, please click here and choose your donation amount. Every little bit helps.

Wow, they do look a lot alike. Both so handsome.

We have a photo of a niece from when she was the age our girls are now. She looks just like our brunette twin. It's kind of fun to see those photos because it's such a link between the past and the present.

So how does Michael react to this? Anytime, I compare one of our kids to anyone on my side of the family, Jim is quick to point out to me, "ya know, they're "our" kids, not your family's kids so any resemblances should be from you and me!" (He's a bit sensitive about being left out ; )
