blooming prairie parade

pick up the pieces ~ turn into lemonade

 We had a doozy of a storm last week and it took down a couple trees in our yard. One of the casualties was the girls sand box and rather than sulk over the loss, we decided to turn the mess into a business opportunity. 

People came from near and far but business was a bit slow the first day. We are hoping the city comes by to remove all the tree debris soon. Then folks might actually see our stand.

wedded camping

 We finally went camping for real over the weekend!

The best part of our trip was that it came complete with the wedding of our friends Dana and Jay!!

There was lots of singing and dancing!!!

It was such a great time, we didn't want the fun to end!

land of ten thousand activities

 Its been a busy summer so far. There's been Twins games, soccer camp, days at the beach, sidewalk chalk, swimming lessons, miniature golf....and that was just the first week of summer vacation.
