September overview

Fun at the Minnesota State Fair

Mia actually loved the animal barns despite looking lethargic here.

Ok, but maybe she wasn't so keen on the accessories...

A beautiful day for the Fair!

Tired and ready for storytime!
But always ready to get up the next day for a trip to the park!

Someone had too much fun :)

The Christenson's had a long layover in Minnesota so we got to have a picnic. Mia loves her cousin Hannah!

A little colder in Duluth but so many fall outfits to wear!

Staycation August 2011

Since we had been traveling for Pretty much the entire months of July and August... we decided to take a Stay-cation. That is where we took vacation days and stayed at home. We had never done this before but were so happy we did. We went on little half-day trips and then would come home for naptime and stick around to do things at home in the evenings. What a perfect week. Here are some of the photos we took.

Just hangin' around my house!
