Fun In Minnesota

We had a nice trip back to Minnesota and were happy we got to see so many family and friends while we were there. I spent many of the days hanging out with family at Grandpa John and Grandma Ellen's, and at Grandma Robin and Tony's houses, so that's pretty much the only places Mom and Dad got many pictures of me. It was kind of rainy while we were back, but lucky for me I remembered my handy-dandy rainboots so I was still able to go explore all kind of fun places.

I had lots of fun chasing my puppies around the big yard.

I still love collecting rocks and had fun digging through all of Grandma Robin's gardens in search of the coolest rocks.

Relaxing on my vacation.

I loved sitting in Grandpa John's tractors. (Mom said Uncle Tyler would've been upset if he knew I was riding in green tractors and not red ones, but I kept it a secret.)

I checked on the calves each day we were at Grandpa John and Grandma Ellen's.


I was also sure to show off my ball skills to Aunt Kelly while we visited.

And one of my favorite things was the trampoline. Now I've just got to talk Mom and Dad into buying me one.

When my little legs finally tired from all the exloring, Dad was sure to give me hand.

Guess What I Found?

Last week I found all kinds of fun animals in our yard.

This turtle hung out at our house most of the week. We named him Sid. He was outside to greet me every morning when I went out to play.

This is a Carolina Anole. We find them crawling on our house a lot.

And here's a cute little tree frog we found when we went to water the plants.

I tried to catch him, but he hopped away too quickly.

And some more recent pictures...

The swirly slide at the park is my favorite.

I've been getting really good at the teeter-totter.

Cooling off in the river.

Being silly at home...

Trying my best to act innocent. I swear I wasn't just jumping from couch to couch

Showing off my shades and my new haircut. I've been a bear lately for the nice Kid's Cuts lady, and since I love watching Dad shave his head I talked him into shaving mine too, just not as short. I think my new do fits me well.
