One of Us Paints Another Runs on Fall Errands

Yoga before breakfast. 

These kids and standing on tables and counters...

Brooke and Meadow were out and about, so I sent over a picture of our stair railings. We need to add a couple to our 3rd floor. I spent the rest of the day painting the back of the house.

Meanwhile, Meadow and I had a bunch of errands to run. First, the library. 


I'm making our Halloween costumes this year based on a pattern that my mom never used in the 90's. 

We stopped at our favorite fabric store: S.R. Harris

We stumbled across this fabric. Should have made a pillow with it. 

Meadow just loves this place and looking at all the fabrics. 

The rest of the things I needed was at Joann's Fabrics. We also need some frames for a few posters that we want to hang up. 

Prints. Much fancier than posters.

Then Scott asked me to pick up some things from Menards. 

Our yard is going to be so beautiful in the spring. 

One of these years we need to buy some of these monstrosities.

Theo actually played in the backyard.

Lately he likes looking over the fence into the neighbors yard. 

Progress. Finally.

Theo made up a ball game that him and I played during the week. It was time for Meadow to try. 


Busy days often means picking up taco fixings from La Casa Market. You can order burritos and tacos like at a taqueria, but we go with the hot deli meats, tortillas already warmed in a cooler and everything else we need. It's awesome.

Duluth December Weekend: Boubville Ain't Bentleyville, But Why Not Go to Both

  This year we decided to check out Daniel's avant garde Christmas light display: Boubville .  We've seen the set up but never in action. Get a crowd and it takes on a totally different vibe. Plus I don't think we've ever seen all the lights and displays on at the same time. There was even a ball pit with hidden prizes. A few of the other kids activities for the first night were canceled due to frigid temps. The winter beach was magical. A great use of the boob lights.  My favorite display was the interactive light display. Meadow even donated some art. The Ghosts of Dinners past was super rad. Like a manger scene where the people disappeared. Loved the burn barrels to stay warm. They were very necessary on this night.  Hey I recognize that doll with the pink tights.  This was one of the displays we'd seen in the past. In Blake and Daniel's garage some local teenage bands were rocking out. Not a bad first night of Boubville.  While Brooke worked at the Supe...

Meadow Turns 7

Since there is no birthday party this year we let Meadow open her first present right away. My baby is all grown up. She was so excited to get Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

A Minneapolis Easter Weekend

This year we decided to stay home for Easter. I had hoped to go to Duluth again, but my brother Blake had to work. Instead I planned some fun things for us to do in Minneapolis. Meadow had fun egg hunting at Blake's last year so I found one at one of the Minneapolis Parks.
