We Are Home and We are Bored

Another weekend with no plans.

Well, your parents were just here.

So far Theo is very chill and just sleeps a lot. Some days he's fussier than others, but he definitely seems easier than Meadow was.

Whenever Meadow takes a bath she asks to be wrapped in a blanket and watch tv.

Ever since she was a little one.

On our more exciting Saturday I had made roasted corned beef and cabbage. So, we had some for lunch.

Meadow just adores her little brother.

She kisses him every minute of the day. This is probably because I kiss her on the head whenever I'm near.

Meadow asked to do puzzles.

For a while this was all she did.

Meadow played dress up with her soon to fit clothes.

We saved all of Meadow's clothes. Since Theo won't be wearing most of them I sorted through all her bins. We actually had more clothes that he could wear than I thought.

We finished our somewhat lazy Sunday with blueberry pancakes for dinner.

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. They're fun to look at it or rent, but sorry bud, we're sticking to tents for the most part. You know I love a fair that is connected to the historic village. 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.

Work Trip: Dallas Part Deux

I was back in Dallas for a day or so to shoot another college campus. After the shoot I made my way back to Bishop Arts District for some tacos at Taqueria El Si Hay . Of course Scott get sent to the cities you don't want to visit in summer. Hey, I just go where they send me. I should've got some elotes on the side. It was only 98 and humid. Just your typical Dallas summer day. I ended up finding a shady park to eat. There’s a lot, and I mean a ton, of suburban sprawl in Dallas proper. But if you look hard enough there’s some rather large areas of pre-WWII development.

Minneapolis Old House Bike Rides Without the Kids

Brooke and I went on a little bike date again to see some more old houses. This time for one of the tours I was most excited for, Lowry Hill. We started with a history of the Walker Art Museum. This house was built for the architect Frank B. Long of the notable architects Long and Kees. That's quite the roof. Long wouldn't recognize the view from his home. These houses are bit fancy for my taste, but I learned some Minneapolis history along the way. It seemed like on this tour we had to stop at every house on Mount Curve Avenue.
