Fall Festival

On Thursday, my mom and I took Brennan, Owen, Grace (my brother's daughter), and James and Julia (his stepkids) to the Olmsted County Historical Society for their fall festival. It was a great way to spend some time on the day off school. Plus it gave the kid some great cousin time--a big part of the reason for relocating here. There were all kinds of fun things to do:  scarecrow decorating, pumpkin painting, decorating canvas backpacks, rope twisting, sauerkraut stomping. It was definitely a great way to spend the afternoon!

Fall in Minnesota. Doesn't get much better than this!
