Packers, Sewing and Snacks

I thought my breakfast was impressive and decided to photograph it. I'm on a poached egg kick lately.

Meanwhile the rest of us have been on a sleeping in kick.

And way too much Nintendo Switch. I was trying to relax myself before the big Packers NFC Championship game. Instead it made me more nervous.

Also our living room is slowly being taken over as a playroom.

Theo and Baby Yoda were ready to watch the GOAT Aaron Rodgers.

I guess I'm the only one without a Packers shirt. What gives?

Meadow is returning to in person schooling in a couple weeks and needed more masks. I always think we have enough masks and then something comes up where we need more.

Before kickoff Theo played some Mario Odyssey.

Baby Yoda was good luck in the divisional round, so he got a good spot to watch the game.

It was smart to get these swings as the kids like to use them year round.

Our favorite time of year. The playoffs for Scott and snack dinner for us.

Unfortunately this would be another disappointing snack-filled almost Super Bowl run. Can't complain the season was awesome. Go Pack, go!

To protect Meadow's ears from wearing a mask all day at school I made her a headband and attached some buttons for the straps.

Good job, Brookie!

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...

Another Hipcamp Adventure: Pine Ridge Tipi and Badlands Backcountry Camping

I was already contemplating where we'd camp next on the way home from our Appalachian Hipcamp road trip . So I booked a few camps out in South Dakota and Nebraska. I guess this is the summer of Hipcamps. Hello, South Dakota.

Super Snow Weekend in Minneapolis

I've been talking Brooke's ear off about a really cool DIY ice trail at Wirth Park. So we made a date out of it, she claimed it wasn't going to be cleared and when we got there it was perfect. It snowed the day before with more snow coming this weekend so I thought no way was someone going to go through all that work to shovel. I guess I was wrong. This was way cooler than I thought it would have been. I wish the kids had been with us. About a dozen other skating enthusiasts were out skating the circuitous circuit.
