Sofia's New Hat

This past weekend, my sister, Jessie, and her husband, Chris, had Sofia and Emma stay at her house. On Saturday they went to the Rheault Farm Fall Festival. Apparently, one of the craft projects they had the kiddos work on were these paper bag hats. Sofia is pretty proud of it, and I have to say it is quite stylish.

Labor Day Weekend

I've finally figured out an easier way to transfer pics from my desktop to laptop, so hopefully these posts will occur more frequently. Now just to find the spare time, eh? :)

Over Labor Day weekend we decided to take a mini-vacation, so we booked a room at the Holiday Inn in Fargo and headed up there that Friday night. We took advantage of their pool and Pirate Ship water park. Sofia really likes the water, but is scared of it too. So, it was mostly splashing in the kiddie pool for her, refusing to go down the slides, and hanging on me or Lee like a spider monkey when we were in the main pool. Looks like swimming lessons will be on the agenda next summer.

Saturday afternoon, we went to Thunder Mountain to ride the go-karts, which Sofia absolutely loved! She loves anything to do with racecars. While we were there the first time, we took advantage of the arcade games. After Sofia's nap at the motel, we went back for some mini-golf.

The next day, we swam some more before checking out. It was a great family weekend of swimming, eating, and enjoying each other's company. Hopefully we can do it again soon.
