MN State Fair 2011

We decided to battle the heat and crowds and go to the MN State Fair today on opening day!! It was super crowded, but we had some great food (our favorite being the deep fried apple pie!!) Jaxon loved the rides...Kylie, not so much! Kylie loved the food...Jaxon, not so much :) A great start to our visit with Grandma and Grandpa James!

Wild Horse Sanctuary

While in South Dakota for work I was able to visit the Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary just outside of Hot springs. Home to over 600 Wild horses it's one of the few places in the U.S. of it's kind.

Carver County Fair

Trip to Aspen, Colorado to go camping and hiking. We were in the Maroon Bells area which has 3 of the top 10 14ers in Colorado. The last picture is of North Maroon Bells which took our group 9 enduring hours to complete.

Brainerd/Lutsen!!

Up north with Bria's side of the family...(Bria had to stay home to work & study). The kids had a blast at both cabins playing and being with the family!!
