wigglin' all over the place...

wigglin' all over the place: last wednesday bobby and i closed on our new house on carlisle street. We spent the day with family and friends painting, extending the laminate wood floors, cleaning, and putting on hardware.

On Friday Livi, Bobby, Grandma Pam, Grandpa Mike, and I attended the "Wiggles" concert. It was a fun experience, even though Livi wasn't really sure what to make of it. I think she enjoyed herself, since she still talks about seeing "Captain Feathersword and Waggs the Dog in concert". I personally had a great time, but Bobby and I both agree the "Wiggles" aren't the same without Greg. Let's have a moment of silence for Greg, the retired Wiggle, to remember all the "wiggly good times" together.... :)

mirror, mirror on the wall...

mirror, mirror on the wall: saturday evening there was a costume contest at jellystone, followed by "trick-or-treating" around the campground. Livi won the costume costume (okay, all the kids won in the "3 years and under" category).

Afterwards, we drove around the campgrounds in our golf cart collecting candy. I enjoyed hearing all the "oohs" and "ahs" when Livi would arrive. What a cutie!

hey there boo boo...

hey there boo boo: My family and i visited "jellystone" this weekend in warrens, wi (home of yogi bear). All of us drove to Wisconsin to spend the weekend with the Schaffer family. It has become a tradition to take a summer trip together. We stayed in a villa with 2 other families. The others were staying in a villa next door to us so we were able to be close to one another. The campground was HUGE! My mom rented us a golf cart for the weekend so we could get around to all the water parks and other attractions. Livi loved the water slides. By the end of the weekend she was riding on them alone (even though my heart stopped each time she went down them); what a little daredevil!

mild or meeker...

mild or meeker: we attended the meeker county fair today with "Auntie Susan" and "Auntie Jill". Livi loved the animals, of course! She even got up close and personal with one of the kittys. When Livia went to pick it up, she grabbed it by its neck. The poor kitty looked terrified. Auntie Jill quickly took over and held the kitty so Livi could pet the cat, instead of strangling it. We had a nice time, even if we only got to see the animals. Next Wednesday the McLeod county fair begins. I wonder if we can make it three fairs in a row...

30 going on 13...

30 going on 13: bobby and i went out for a nice dinner at biaggi's in maple grove yesterday for my birthday. I was a little worried about turning "30", but it wasn't as bad as I thought. I guess I was waiting on a dark hunched man with a black hood to creep up behind me at any second. I got lucky though because all I received was a shower of love. Bobby even surprised me with a spa package to the Ensospa yesterday, so I have to say, I look pretty good for a 30 year old- I feel even younger! What do you think?
