Grandparents Visit While Scott Travels

While Scott was on yet another work trip, the kids and I took advantage of the last days of Bread and Pickle being open.

Biking with Theo can sometimes be very frustrating. He likes to yell and give up easily.

Pecan has recently discovered that we store her food in the back staircase. When we're not looking she sneaks out when you open the door and gets into her food.

The rare times Meadow and Theo play together.

Theo's new favorite breakfast is smiley breakfast. A bagel with cream cheese and a cheese omelet.

My parents were coming to help out this week with Scott being gone. I tidied up the living room.

The kids have also been willingly going outside to play lately. Mostly to have pillow fights.

My mom loved going to the Jack O' Lantern Spectacular at the Minnesota Zoo a few years ago and asked to go again.

They had a Saja Boys song playing and all the kids in the crowd were singing along.

My parents lucked out with good weather to have dinner on the porch.

Theo used Meadow's music stand to hold his cards for Kings Corner.

The kids did really well at their school conferences so they got more ice cream at Sebastian Joe's.

The kids were off school the rest of the week while I was at work. My parents took them out to Victor's for breakfast.

I didn't have any more meals planned for the week so we went out for dinner at Pizza Luce.

Yardwork, Ikea and Pumpkins

My new parents-in-law got us a dehydrator for the wedding. Knowing we were going to be cleaning up the garden and going to farmer's market, we took a gander at our millionth kitchen device during breakfast. Scott added granola to his oatmeal. The oatmeal was rather bland, just the way Brooke likes it. Scott was actually cleaning up so I had to take a quick photo of him as proof. Scott told me he was, "putting a blanket down for Peanut," while singing. During the winter months peanut needs a warm place to peer through the window. Seeing as it was nearly November, I setup his blanket for him. Seeing as the farmers market season is dwindling down, we headed to the market...once again. The close proximity to the cities central farmer's market has to be one of the best assets of living in NoMi. We were both amazed by the bounty of produce still on sale. We quickly filled up our first bag and took it back to the car....

The Cape Cod of the Midwest

We talked Brittany into joining us for a road trip to Door County, WI. Scott had never been there before ( or so I believe) . Considering how short of a drive it is I'm surprised my family didn't go that often, either.

Mexico 2020 - CDMX - Hipódromo

Day 1 After saving up for a few years we were finally ready to take a real family vacation. Our original plan was to rent a camper van in San Diego and drive down into Baja California. When we couldn't find any rental places that allow you to cross the border we decided on Mexico City.
