It's been busy around here lately. I'm sure most of you blog readers can relate. Here's a quick summary of the most exciting activities from the past couple of weeks --

Miles' friend Ava turned three years old. We went to her party, where she and Miles splashed in the pool with their other friend Myles. Snow White was also at the party...she chose to stay out of the water, though. Smart lady.

Tanner and I took a mini-vacation "up North". We were darn near Canada! It felt weird to have lengthy adult conversations and quiet meals...we were very lonely for Miles, but sure enjoyed our road trip! We rented bikes and rode along the Mesabi Trail system on Saturday morning. Here's some tilted proof -

We made a pit stop at a pretty lake. You can't tell by the picture, but the water had a rusty tint to it...guess that's what happens when you're a lake on the iron range.

We made a second pit stop at this moose. His name is "Honk". We decided he represents the city of Biwabik very well...it's definitely a one-moose town.

Since coming home, we've been blessed (SUPER BLESSED) with cool weather. Miles and Tanner took advantage of a perfect summer evening by washing the car. Aren't they a good pair?!

Last night we ventured down to the Steele County Free Fair. It's the largest free fair in MN. The only thing free about it, though, is the admission price. Too bad the cheese curds aren't included... Anyway, we briefly checked out the cows (this one was "Little Biff" - might be related to Charlie) and then spent a loooooooong time trying out each and every tractor and lawn mower. Miles will be happy to tell you which seats are the most comfortable if you're in the market for either type of machine.

We've got more fun adventures planned, of course...I'll do my best to blog :)
