On The Thirteenth Day Of Advent We Decorated Another Tree

While in Wisconsin we helped my parents decorate their tree.

When I say we helped, I mean Meadow, Jaspurr and I watched.

Of course I just photographed everything.

And why not throw in some adorable photos of Meadow sitting in a high chair.

Out baby's growing up.

Our First Visit to the Steele County Fair plus a Twins Game with Friends

This past year Theo's best friend moved to Owatonna. When we came down last May for his birthday party I saw a sign for the Steele County Fair and knew we had to come back for it. First stop is the lemonade stand. Then we hit up the daredevil show. After going to the RV show last February, Theo gets excited to tour campers.

I don't know if this is a common thing, but a few of the county fairs around here have little history centers right on their fairgrounds.

We found a cool little shop along Lindstrom's main drag, A Ghost in the Attic . Meadow wanted every little knickknack. She did get some really cool glow in the dark alien cat earrings.

Camping at Great River Bluffs State Park Along the Mighty Mississippi

Scott had a job in Rochester so we decided to make a weekend of it and go camping. Was nice to finally get out of town with Brooke and the kids for the first time since the 4th of July. Before we left on our little trip, Scott and I scored a deal for a porch swing on Facebook Marketplace. Our porch is my favorite room and now it looks even better with the swing. I'd like it better if it didn't have storm windows and was open air like it's meant to be. After Scott's quick shoot in Rochester we were ready for lunch. Every time I go to Rochester, I eat at Al Madina . Apparently if a Middle Eastern restaurant has that name it's good. You also know a restaurant is good if you're the only white people there. It was fun to share this place with the family. These kids can be super picky but are also little foodies. You just have to know their favorites. They absolutely love gyros and falafel. We stopped at the local library quick so Scott could use the wifi. This ...
