A Baptism and Birthday

We took a trip to MN/WI

in October

for our God baby Liam's baptism

and Mason's 2nd birthday.

We started in Hudson
and spent a few days with Nana & Papa.
Daddy raked some leaves into a pile
and the girls had a blast in them.

 

Mommy & Daddy snuck away
for a night out with some friends.

While the girls played with Nana & Papa,
Mommy & Daddy put some freezer meals together
for Aunt Jessica's parents.

I traveled to Bloomington, MN
for a day in the office.
I was also to meet up with Robert
for a crossfit workout before dinner with the Bolls.

The baptism went well and Liam is perfect.
The girls were antsy but they made it
without being too naughty.

We headed to the pizza place
for Mason's birthday party
after the baptism was over.

We left the birthday party
and drove straight to the hunting shack
or as Sara likes to call it, "the hunkin' shack"
to meet the Hannans for a few days of fun.



Mommy did a bad thing
and forgot to buckle Anna into her carseat.
As we were driving down Hwy 169
Anna stood up and smiled
while looking out the front window.
Sara yelled, "Mom!  Anna got out of her seat!"

Oops.
Mommy crawled into the backseat
and got her strapped back in right away.


We met up at the Wolf Creek Bar
where Sara enjoyed gambling
and Anna had a blast playing
video arcade games with Mason.

The girls enjoyed being with their cousins
and their God parents.
It was a nice & relaxing time.

Sara (and mommy) didn't enjoy the Ranger
but Anna was ALL smiles.

 

After leaving the shack,

we had a night in Hudson before catching

our early morning flight.

Uncle Alex and cousin Blake

were able to stop by and play.
