Pigs in the yard?


Pigs come for a visit? We've had lots of visitors but this would be the first time two brown pigs decided to visit. They were very interested in the acorns that have fallen - and they even decided to lay down and rest on the lawn for a while. Apparently they belonged to a farm not to far from us. We still do not know if the farmer ever located these fellas! I am a tad bit more cautious when I open the door now!

This sweet little face just melts grandma and grandpa!
Big sister Brooklyn just loves her brother and likes to be close to him. He has had lots of kisses from her - I wonder how long he will let that happen??

Proud daddy Daniel is holding little two month old Preston Mathew. Preston is smiling more and getting stronger (see how he holds his head up now!) every day. Every stage with a child is precious and we are enjoying seeing the changes with this little one.

Here is a picture taken today of little Preston who is now 8 weeks old. He is soon to move into his new house with his Daddy, Mommy and sister. For the last month he has been hanging out here with Grandma & Grandpa and, of course, his Daddy, Mommy and sister. It sure will be quiet around here when they move to their new home! (Fortunately, it is not too far away..)

In the background you can see a wonderfully relaxing place to stay on Lake Superior called Cove Point Lodge. If you are looking for beauty and peace, this is a place to consider. We enjoyed one evening here; a fabulous dinner with a table overlooking the lake and nice Scandinavian style breakfast the next morning. (In fact, the dinner appetizer of smoked salmon included lefse! Imagine that!) We slept with the window open and were lulled to sleep by the sound of the lake crashing on the rocks. It was great. Definitely a place to visit again!

Here we are at one of our favorite places to visit - Canal Park in Duluth, Minnesota. We enjoyed a weekend here and especially enjoyed having John and Sara join us for one night. When we arrived it was 101 in Duluth - the next morning we had to go out and purchase sweatshirts because it was cool and very windy!

This wonderful picture is from Father's Day in June of 2006. We are the proud grandparents to our five grandchildren - Brooklyn, Preston, Luke, Hannah and Timothy. As you can see, we have many years of activity ahead when everyone comes to visit.
Welcome to Berge Central, the blog spot for Grandma and Grandpa Berge. It only seems fitting that we have a blog too - we have to stay current here in 2006. We might be grandparents but that doesn't mean we are out of touch! I am learning the fine arts of adding pictures to our blog so check back soon to see our smiling faces. Have a great day!
