Going on a trip and dressing up

 Chadd was packing for his motorcycle trip and I think "someone" wanted to go with!

 

 The new thing for Christopher and his friends is dressing up.  They like all sorts of masks and capes and swords.  It can be transformers, power rangers, batman, spiderman, or a combination.

Christopher had a friend over to play.  They both like being "batman."  We went to the park and played and they kept the masks on the whole time they played at the park!

Dirt

There is a pile of black dirt in the trailer.  What should we do with that?  Jump in and get dirty of course!!!

Sister's Weekend

We had an awesome first annual Sister's Weekend in Stillwater, MN.  We enjoyed talking, drinking, eating, laughing, hot-tubbing, dancing and shopping!  Thanks so much Jennie and Libby for a great time!

Good Friends

 Christopher and Chester like to play together.  Chester knows to be gentle with Chris and even though Chris sticks his head right in the path of dangerous claws, Chester is good not to use the claws at all!  They are so cute playing together!

Happy 1st Birthday Noah!

Happy Birthday on August 30th to my precious nephew, Noah!  I hope Noah had a wonderful 1st birthday party.  I was lucky to spend some time with him at Ottertail Lake with the family in July and it was so fun to see how much he has grown!  He is such a wonderful little boy.  We all love him very much!  Can't wait to see him again real soon!  Hugs and kisses to Noah on his 1st birthday!

State Fair 2012

We had a great time at the "Great Minnesota Get Together" this year - the Minnesota State Fair!  There is just nothing like it.  I look forward to it every year.  Here Christopher is going through the farming exhibit!
