December Update

Oh wow! School starts and everything else goes on hold. Well, my first semester is coming to a close, just a few finals left! One semester down, seven to go!
Before school and work took over our lives, we had the pleasure of a visit from Phill's family. This was waaaay back in Sepember, but we had some real fun and I just had to share!
We explored the historic downtown St. Paul and found a few Peanuts characters just hanging out.


We also visited the St. Paul Cathedral.







We spent an entire day at the Minnesota State Fair, which is the largest fair in the nation in terms of attendance per day. It's a big deal over here, so we had to check it out. 200,000 people a day can't be wrong!


Are you kidding me?!


We had heard of several famous fair foods, so we concluded that to be good temporary Minnesotan citizens, we should try them all...











We were all absolutely sick by the end of the day, but it was well worth it!
We loved our visit from Phill's family! We get lonely out here. If you're ever in Minneapolis, don't hesitate to drop on by!

Hey, you didn't notice that I was there, too! That's me in the black hat and blue denim shirt. When I saw you were about to take my picture, I had to find a quick excuse to look down.

You just made me laugh aloud. Silly Daddy!
