Minnesota State Fair




Saturday we went to the Minnesota State Fair. It was a beautiful day so of course everyone and there brother decided to go that day also! Every were you looked there were people!



I had first thought we would end up staying until the evening to see the fair lights at night, but by about 5:00 we had all had enough of the people. Surprising enough it really wasn't a big deal to keep track of the kids. They were really good about staying right next to us or in the stroller.


Matthew and Abby were the only ones to go on any rides. Here Matthew is on the Dragon Roller coaster.


Abby on the swings.

We all took a ride on the Ski Lift. I really didn't want to ride, but we needed one more rider to go with one of the kids. I choose to go with Matthew because I knew I would have to keep it together for him, and I also knew that he would sit really still and not rock the car that we were in. It wasn't that bad once we got in the air, but I could still do without. :) Despite that crowds it was fun, but Todd and I would both like to go back WITHOUT kids.

A Wedding

Friday night we went to the wedding of Todd's cousin Brian and his new wife Heather. They had a beautiful outdoor wedding in Minneapolis.

The kids are dancing together above. They were one of the few on the floor at the time, so they got alot of oh's and ah's of course!
