Donut Walks are the Best Walks

Smoothie face cutie.

This kid gets in so much trouble, but he's darn cute.

Another snowstorm rolled through our parts. Unlike most Minnesotan's I wasn't surprised to see another one this winter.

It snows, like, every April, folks.

Our first stop was donuts at Bogart's, but we weren't sure if they'd have anything left.

Did we make it before the doughnuts sold out?

I guess we made it.

They must be making more because there never is this many at this time of the day.

Brooke was clearly happy to have her pick of donuts.

Of course Meadow picked sprinkles, but the donut started falling apart along the walk.

Next we walked over to Uptown.

Little buddy was getting sleepy.

We walked into Papersource because I thought Meadow would dig it.

 I knew she'd love this store.

We also went to CB2 to look at some couches and beds. Maybe this year will be the year we get adult furniture.

Meadow really wanted this mirror. The circle one in the pink rock.

Hint, hint, Aunt Jen.

We also stopped in H&M. Meadow got a different dress and I got a sweater.

The main reason for our walk was to go the library. 

Even with no stairs in our unit Theo is an old pro at getting up and down them.

Yup.

We went to Sotarol for lupper. I'd had the food truck before, but no one else had been here.

Meadow was excited to read her new books.

My sushi burrito was so good.

Still reading.

Meadow's shrimp fried rice was so good.




When we were walking back I saw that Mohn Electric was closing. How sad.

They helped us build our chandelier in our old house.

Lately Meadow has been asking for a pet. I found my old Tamagotchi while looking for something else and thought it would be perfect for Meadow.

One of our neighbors messaged me and asked if Meadow wanted a chicken suit. I said yes and picked it up.

Mending, movies and popcorn.

A few days later the weather warmed up and most of the snow melted. 

So, we went for a family bike ride.

Gotta love biking with the kiddos and this gal.

Our Wedding

Brooke and I aren't traditionalists. We didn't want to sit through a half-hour ceremony, but we also didn't think eloping was the answer. One thing that we did do was spend the night before the wedding in separate houses.   Even though Scott came with me to pick out my dress I still didn't want him to see me before the wedding. I had to keep one tradition. I woke up early to meet Brooke's dad at the Theodore Wirth Picnic Pavilion, only to find out that he was meeting me a couple hours later. I ended up getting most of the decorations over to the venue with my dad, sister and Dennis.  Scott had texted me in the morning, "I'm supposed to merry your dad right now right?". I was like, merry my dad? What he meant to type, but autocorrect corrected for him was meet.  Since Brooke came over to the venue to help, I spent most of the rest of the day with Blake, Colin and Olger. We ate some Pair of Dice Pizza and...

Gift Cards are for Spending

Thanks to daylight savings I got up extra early today. For breakfast I had eggs. You thought it was going to be oatmeal didn't you?   Scott was working his early shift at work so I worked on chores. I hate when he works when I have off, but in a way I get more done with him gone. Like dishes.  Our last two pumpkins from our garden.    Before they could start going bad I roasted them in the oven.   I then soaked the seeds in salty water for roasting later.    This week I decided to clean out our buffet drawers. Each drawer was turning into a junk drawer and needed to be cleaned.    I first took everything out to go through what I needed and what could be thrown away/recycled.  I pureed the pumpkin to be used for future use. Like pumpkin woopie pies, mmm.  While cleaning out the drawers I stumbled upon some items left behind from the previous owners.  Now ...

RV Spring Break: Savannah to Miami

Oh, hey, we made it to Savannah. Time for a nice stroll (well, as leisurely as Brooke will allow).   I was pretty excited to be going to Savannah, even if we could only stay for a few hours. The tricky thing with having an RV is finding a place to park. The Fahm Avenue parking lot had RV spots and then we walked over to the historic district. Meadow should go to the Savannah College of Art and Design. You know, if she can get a scholarship. Savannah is just as cool in person as you think. I should have done at least one house tour. I had to embarrass Meadow with taking her photo in front of the first Girl Scout Headquarters.  Brooke got me to go into the beautiful Catholic church right in the historic district. I don't think I've ever been in a Cathedral Basilica. Usually it's one or the other. It seems like every few blocks there was a perfect square. We should build all cities like this. For lunch we went to Savannah Smokehouse . We ended up getting the sampler for 2, whi...
