Almost Out of Here: Packing, Crafts and Bike Rides

We made it to the beach one last time this season. I'm really going to miss being able to walk to the beach whenever.

It's October. Do they call this Global Warming or something?

Theo has been very naughty lately and runs away when it's time to go.

Theo still loves his magnatiles and plays every single day.

We all love apple pancakes or really any variation of pancakes.

Just a few more weeks before the big move. We have a lot more stuff than I thought.

Meadow made a bat signal out of paper, a flash light and magnatiles.

Clever gal.

Our busy days mean quick meals for dinner.

I had to do some test baking for work. There were no complaints from this family.

Sneaky buddy.

Smoothies all the time.

Theo somehow keeps himself busy as we pack, clean and pack some more.

It was another nice weekend so we went on a family bike ride. Grand Avenue is still closed which is perfect for us to bike down and not worry about cars.

Open Streets Grand Avenue has been fun.

We ended up biking right up to Tap Society.

Snack lunch, FTW!

While on one of our recent walks Meadow found an origami book in one of the little free libraries and has been hooked since.

Yardwork, Ikea and Pumpkins

My new parents-in-law got us a dehydrator for the wedding. Knowing we were going to be cleaning up the garden and going to farmer's market, we took a gander at our millionth kitchen device during breakfast. Scott added granola to his oatmeal. The oatmeal was rather bland, just the way Brooke likes it. Scott was actually cleaning up so I had to take a quick photo of him as proof. Scott told me he was, "putting a blanket down for Peanut," while singing. During the winter months peanut needs a warm place to peer through the window. Seeing as it was nearly November, I setup his blanket for him. Seeing as the farmers market season is dwindling down, we headed to the market...once again. The close proximity to the cities central farmer's market has to be one of the best assets of living in NoMi. We were both amazed by the bounty of produce still on sale. We quickly filled up our first bag and took it back to the car....

4th of July 2025: Our Annual Romenesko Reunion

4th of July, you say? Of course we were going up to Three Lakes and the cottage. I took a half day on Thursday and we headed to the cottage. Scott had to stop in Lindstrom which brought us to an old favorite for lunch in Taylor's Falls, The Drive In .

Work Trip: Scott Goes to Florida

As I mentioned in the last post, I had a job down in Florida at the tail end of the week. Daytona Beach to be precise. I proposed the whole family tag along, but they did not like the idea of Florida in the Summer. Anyways, after my shoot I checked Ormond Beach just to the north of Daytona. Theo is allergic to the sun and I knew he would hate going. If there wasn't four lanes of busy traffic, this town would be great.
