Roaring Rapids

Today at My Gym the big ride of the day was the Roaring Rapids. Adam loved it! He took 3 turns. Then the shopping carts came out. Happy toddler!

Going to Mankato

Adam really wanted to walk to Minnesota today. He's putting his shoes on himself, but I think he's forgetting something else.

Mankato Children's Museum

Mankato is the in process of fundraising for an amazing children's museum. In the meantime they have this super fun interim space that we love going to. The kiddos can do arts and crafts, read books, grocery shop on the "store," make pizza in the restaurant, and of course adam's favorite, play with sand in the quarry. We are so lucky that our generation has so many great activities like this for our kiddos. Giving them the chance to learn and play in a new space. We absolutely love it.

Here are some shots in the quarry, water room, music room, and yaya being silly in the dog house.

Thanksgiving #1

Since we will not be in MN for Thanksgiving, Papa Scott was nice enough to do an early dinner for us while we were here. We had amazing turkey, mashed potatoes, and all the other Thanksgiving favorites that I ignored because I was too busy eating his turkey and mashed potatoes. We found out today that Adam has an ear infection in both ears, plus he is getting his top two molars and four eye teeth. Needless to say he is not the happiest baby. But he still managed to have a great time doing blanket swings and singing happy birthday to you at the burning candles on the table.

We are so spoiled in kato!

Wagon Wheel Cafe

A Haefner family favorite!

Saying goodbye to Grandy

This weekend Alex and I had a wonderful celebration with the Youngs in Palm Beach. We were honoring the lives of Grandy and Stash. So many stories to share and photographs to discover. Theirs was a love story that is an inspiration to us all, and we hope to pass down their strength, courage, and love to many generations of Youngs.
