Meadow, Mama and Theo Go to Open Streets Lyndale

After we ate breakfast Theo is ready for his first nap.

That is before they were to head out for the day.

Today was Open Streets Lyndale Avenue. We are lucky we live so close so we could walk. I took the kids while Scott stayed behind. I wish I could've biked. There's always next year.

We first spotted a petting zoo.

Then we saw a decorate your bike station. Meadow kept wanting to add more and more things her scooter.

We then spotted some kids making cotton candy outside their house.

We took a break to feed Theo and next to us was a spin art booth.

Next we found a bouncy house, this was turning out to be the best day ever for Meadow.

The corner of Lake and Lyndale was where all the action was.

We walked until we found a balloon for Meadow then headed back home.

I just had surgery, so I had to lay low for a few days.

I made Dutch pancakes for dinner. I used the recipe from Symmetry Breakfast and it turned out much poofier.

Pretty much.

I had also started 3 kinds of tomatoes and bell peppers this week. For breakfast I had steel cut oats. I know pretty exciting. Something unusual did happen today. I had gone out to get groceries and found Peanut soaked from the rain waiting by the door when I got home. I'm not sure how he got out or how long he was gone. He is not actually blurry in this photo as it appears. He had just shaken all the rain off his fur. He has been quite the escape artist lately and may have sprinted out quickly when I left. For lunch I just had a mixed green salad and a tangelo. For dinner I had ham and chicken jambalaya. My sister and brother-in-law were going to com

Exploring (and Camping) Southwest Minnesota Historical Sites

We have most of the southern portion of Minnesota to visit before the end of the year. That's when our Minnesota Historical Society membership expires...unless G.G. renews it again.
