Play it Again and a Library in January

Every once and a while Theo remembers I got them Switch Sports as a reward. No one ever wants to play as a family. 😭

I was out late the night before and feeling it this morning.

It must be time to go to a random Hennepin County Library.

I can only be lazy for so long.

This return pile is small compared to normal.

We also needed to get Theo a helmet for skating, so even I tagged along.

Next stop Play It Again Sports. His stick at home is for street hockey, so we also picked a wood stick up for him.

Meadow also got some new ski poles and I picked up some rollerblades for myself.

When we were in Chinatown over Christmas, Theo bought his favorite make your own gummy kit.

Brooke and I went for a walk and picked up some groceries from the co-op.

Since returning from the cottage I haven't managed to get the kids to skate.

Still the best Christmas present ever, Theo?

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...

Work Trip: Muncie, Appalachian Kentucky, Cincinnati and Chicago

I'm back to being on the road again for 360 shoots. This time I got to shoot Ball State in Muncie, Indiana. That was just the start since I had three shoots lined up in Indiana, Kentucky and Illinois over five days. After my first day of shooting I got dinner at Twin Archer Brew Pub and got a Philly Cheesesteak of course. I eat way too many cheesesteaks. And then I explored Downtown Muncie and thereabouts.

Yard Sales and Farmers Market Bike Rides

Today was the day for our first rummage sale. Earlier in the week I messaged our tenant to let her know we were doing this. She responded letting us know she also signed up. It was fun hanging out with Izzy while we waited for some customers. Theo tried to lure in customers like he worked at Little Ceasars. The kids made chocolate chip cookies and homemade lemonade. I think the kids were making more money than us. We actually sold quite a bit. The kids made money on all the clothes and toys they sold. Everyone made a decent chuck of change.
