Dinner for Lunch and Beer for Dinner

Meadow and I are working on a cat purse that she designed. I tell her what to do and she's been doing all the sewing herself.

She's going to be a fashion designer.

Her new favorite show is Project Runway.

Little buddy loves playing with cars.

Meadow likes Wii Fit.

We put back together the learning tower since Theo loves climbing up things. He thinks it's the greatest being able to see everything.

He helped me make some chickpea flatbread.

I almost finished my book except I ran short of a few pages. This time I actually finished it.

That's after she ordered a few more pages.

Photo books are expensive, whether digitally made or by hand.

Roll, roll, roll the dough until...

you have some flatbread.

Since we were going to meet up with some friends during dinner, I made dinner for lunch. Falafel.

These two.

We met up with Shannyn, Brent, Allyson, Tom and their kids at Utepil's taproom.

This is one of my favorite Minnesota breweries. I'm a sucker for good German beers.

The kids went straight to working on their coloring.

Theo and Allister are a few years apart, but that didn't stop them from having some fun.

Next year they will probably play together.

We happened to grab the table by all the games.

The kids might have scared everyone away.

The place was packed when we arrived.

Sadly the food truck that was scheduled didn't show up.

We were driving home and decided we needed to get dinner and there's no better option then World Street Kitchen.

My Korean burrito hit the spot. Too bad Meadow's kids chicken was super spicy.

My Mexican egg sandwich was also epic. Sorry, Meadow.

We then headed across the street to the Waffle Bar for dessert.

I'd wanted to try this place out for a while.

Our waffle ice cream sundae was pretty good, but they should really tone down the bright white lighting.

Iron Range Camping for Work and Fun

Scott had more shoots this weekend. This time it took us way up north. With Meadow back in school we left Friday afternoon. Luckily Meadow's teacher canceled their afternoon meeting and we were able to leave earlier than we planned. To break up the long drive we camped for the night at Mille Lacs Kathio State Park . We booked the last site, I can't believe people are still camping. When we were setting up our tent Meadow said, "Why are other people so close to us?" We don't go to normal campgrounds very often I guess. We set up early and went on a hike before dinner. We should have brought our canoe along, but a hike would do.

Meadow's 13th Birthday Party

We woke up to down pouring rain. Once the rain had slowed down, Theo and I walked over to the Kingfield Farmers Market. Theo picked another Bundt cake as his treat. I have never seen it so dead. I got some rhubarb to make jam and Israeli bagels that I wasn't expecting to be long. On our walk home we also picked up some free pots and a Minecraft book. Both of our vacuums have bit the dust. I was trying to hold out until Black Friday to buy another one when I saw there was deals thanks to Prime Day. Theo said he's never seen me this excited before, not even my birthday. I used up all of my gift cards I'd earned from Medica. Yeah, I know, it's weird. Walking for two years got us a vacuum. I had vacuumed in the morning with our old vacuum and then again with our new one. Ew. Usually I'm the one stressing out before guests come over but this time it was Scott. We both have blind spots for different parts of the house I guess. We originally thought we'd have her ...

Backcountry Camping with Kids in Theodore Roosevelt National Park

Day 1 Back in May I stumbled upon Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I had no idea there was a National Park in North Dakota and that it was the northern end of the Badlands. Usually our summer vacations coincide with Scott's work trips. Since he didn't have any this summer I thought we should take advantage of actually taking a vacation. What, my workcations are always classics? I suppose a second real vacation this year wouldn't hurt. We definitely have more time than normal. As long as we took Covid-19 precautions and avoided people. We finally settled on a time to go. Blake joined us so we borrowed our dad's van so we could ride together. Scott had just driven from Michigan the day before. Blake had met my parents in Wisconsin to get the van and then drove from Duluth to pick us up. I offered to drive since I literally only drive twice a month. I was still pretty tired from a long drive home. Since we were near Fergus Falls we had to stop by the abandoned state ho...
