A Perfect Fall Day

I am skipping ahead for the moment. This weekend was one of the first weekends since summer that we haven't had a jam packed schedule. It was wonderful!!!

On Saturday, P got a little painting done on the bedroom, then we headed out to her old boss E's house for a housewarming party. It was fun to se him and his family and got to hang out with some great folks that she used to work with at Mesaba. Then, we went to the M family's house for a delicious dinner and bonfire. M #1's family was there and we just love his family, so fun was had by all! It was great to see all of them again, as we hadn't since the wedding. The kids had a blast together.

Today, Sunday, was perfect! Well, really anytime we have a whole weekend, all together, is perfect in my book. Today, however, was great because not only was the weather fantastic, but it was a great mix of productivity and family time. We all just hung out in the morning, had some good cuddles, a few wrestles. Then I painted while the kids napped. Then we went on a little biking adventure!

There is a restaurant that I have been hearing about all summer and hadn't gotten to, near Minnehaha Falls, called Sea Salt. It is right next to the Falls and you get everything to go and they have tons of outdoor seating. That was our first stop on the adventure and we had some delicious seafood for dinner. Then, we pedaled on up the road for a little dessert at D.Q., followed by the scenic route home.

Yep....perfect day. Gorgeous weather, time with the family. Who could ask for more! N was SO excited to ride on his "half bike" and Miss M loved her ride in the Chariot....she rode in total comfort. Even took her socks and shoes off, little stinker! :)
