Kicking off our [at least mine] favorite season, we took advantage of some fun activities in town while Seth was away on business.
We headed down to the balloon-less hot air balloon festival and took part in the family kite fly. Alden's not one for patience, so kite flying wasn't initially "his thing". We got his kite up in the air though and he enjoyed {all five minutes of} it!
Then, we headed over to, one of my favorite fall places, the Chester Bowl Fall Fest. However, I'm not sure that it is my favorite on my own with three children who all have different ideas of what they want to do. I'm really not sure that weaving the stroller through crowds of people, at a slant, while balancing 3 corn dogs with ketchup, is my favorite thing either....
The next day, Rem and I met with Cara and Kelly for breakfast and got a sneak peak at Kelly's new house! One point for leaving the older boys home with a babysitter :-)
That afternoon, we met with our favorite Linns and traveled to Simek's Farm in Cotton, MN. It was SUCH a fun time! Even more fun for the boys is when your moms show up dressed almost exactly alike. Unbelievable! And hilarious....
What a fun weekend! We're looking forward to more that will follow!!
