I went in for a routine ultrasound not realizing that I would walk out having seen our baby via 3D and 4D imaging! It's like you could reach out and touch him/her! And no, we're still not finding out the sex.

Our first really hot summer day!

Just west of the Cities, in the quaint town of Waconia, the Nephew clan celebrated a really hot humid day. What fun the kids had bouncing in the bouncy house and swimming in the kiddy pool. Nephew reunions are always a good time, but the weather this year made for a very memorable occasion.

Grandpa and Grandma took such cute pictures this weekend of Brynn picking potatoes and enjoying the lake, that I had to share. Molly the golden retriever is one of her best buddies.

Shores of Superior

We spent another Fourth of July weekend on the north shore this year. We really lucked out with fantastic weather. Brynn was able to swim and play in the Temperance River and the Big Lake. Nick and Mingus took a nice long hike without mommy and Brynn this year (boo-hoo) but I can't help out with a Kelty pack on my back this time around. So instead, Brynn and I played at the beach and picked out trinket toys at the resort gift shop. Surprisingly, it was our first time ever eating at the Angry Trout in Grand Marais and absolutely one of the highlights of our trip - what a fabulous view and menu. It's just nice to wake up and roll out of bed with fresh air, no computer, no work, no house on the market b.s., and just enjoy. I miss it already!

Summer Days are Here

Brynn turns 2!

Today is Brynn's 2nd Birthday. We can't believe how quickly the time has gone by. To celebrate, our entire family enjoyed an evening picnic at Como Park. Happy Birthday, our special girl! We love you and we are so proud of you!
