Trip To Minnesota!

The first of November we traveled back to Minnesota for a quick trip home.  Andy was extra excited as we timed out trip home for the opening weekend of deer season as well!

Andy's parents live out in the country and it's non-stop fun from the moment the kiddos wake up (which is early...).  It reminded me of when I was little and how one could spend hours outside playing with the dog, rocks, sticks, bikes, and using their imagination.

Andy's parents have a lab named Kai. Kai is a VERY well behaved dog, the kiddos loved it as Kai followed every command they said.  Ahhhh the power Drew and Claire had that week....

Drew was ecstatic to go on his first pheasant hunting trip with dad, grandpa, and Kai.  Drew was in a back pack on Andy's back.

They came home with pheasants. Drew was a little concerned when he learned they couldn't fly anymore though!

Thank you Mimi and Papa for the Iowa sweat shirts!

Claire the master of Kai!

Drew had so many firsts this week!  They also took the boat out and went fishing!  He was entertained the entire time and spend four hours out on the lake with the boyzzzz!

Andy so proud of one of the pheasants!



Claire stayed so busy with the cat, Julie and dog Kai.  Claire would follow them around ALL DAY!



We also scored awesome dress up costumed the day after Halloween for $2.00!!! 

We had a great time back home and were also able to spend time with my brother Brain in Virgina. Uncle Brain is like a trip to Disney Land for the kids, non stop fun!
