Cleaning Up the Garage and Yard

After talking about it for awhile Scott picked up a U-Haul and we spent the better half of a Friday loading it up. We had random stuff left by the previous owners and house projects.

Like 99% of this was just crap left behind by the old owners.

Theo wanted oatmeal for breakfast so I told him how to do it. Good thing our old kitchen has children sized counters.

Never not going to be nervous with Theo cutting veggies and fruit.

Theo loves working on his math books.

Kitty ate my breakfast crumbs.

After taking our junk filled Uhaul to the dump we reorganized and cleaned our garage. It's so nice to have more space and no more carpet on the floor.

I was probably annoying Brooke with my endless sweeping, but in the end I could actually see the pavement instead of an inch of cement dust and debris.

Meadow had been interested in seeing how long it would take to walk to her school. We were about to go when Theo said he wanted to join.

Gonna take a good deal longer if you stop at the playgrounds. Oh, wait, this is at the middle school.

Then Theo and I ended the night by playing Smath. Think Scrabble but with math equations.

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....

We made it safely to Bayfield without getting attacked by any bears . I think that's because of my wily driving skills.

A Fall Farmers Market Visit

I prefer the local King Field Farmers Market or the bougie Mill City Farmers Market, but we decided to stop by the OG Minneapolis Farmers Market. Early October is peak farmers market season here in Minnesota. Scott claims the Kingfield Farmers Market has the same stuff but I don't believe it. There's just the same stuff 5 times over at the Minneapolis Farmers Market. I'll admit this place is pretty great despite being in the armpit of a freeway.
