We must be nuts…

…cuz we’ve gone Loony again.  Yep, at we’re at Loon Lodge.  My cousin Nicole gets married this weekend in Crookston so we had to make a pit stop here.  My sister hadn’t seen the place yet either, so theres that too.  Avery looks amused.  “Oh yay.  We’re at Loon Lodge again.”

In the brief time that we’ve been away from Loon Lodge – fall arrived!  

They are busy trying to close up the cabin for the year, so we had to eat up what was left in the cupboard.  Which meant it was finally time to break down and eat the last bag of Costa Rican Frijoles Rojos.  Translation: Costa Rican red beans that ROCK.  We’ve found a site online to buy them, so all is well in the world.  Which is good because my Avos is OBSESSED with them.  She ate nothing but red beans and milk for dinner last night.

Dylan had nothing to do with them.  He’s busy with his bulldozer.

Bean coma.

Screaming at Grandpa to give her more beans (we had cut her off for diaper changing sake in the morning).  

“Uggggg.  Why won’t anyone LISTEN TO ME!?!?!? Fine!  I’ll wipe my face on the couch! That’ll show em!”

Today we got the stupid idea to take a boat ride.  At first it seemed okay, but it turned out to be a baaaaaad idea.  Summer and fall have collided.   Th

e crew examining the wall falling into the lake.  It was serious bidness.  

Fall fashion statement!

Its a good look for her, me thinks.

Stoopin to a new low!  

Finally!  Documentation of the sunglass collection!

(note: these are Jon’s actual sunglasses.)

Fallllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

Here’s were it got ugly.  Yes, that

‘s Susan snuggling with a dog.  Yep, a real dog.  This is not a fake dog.  Real dog here people!  Desperate times call for desperate measures.  It was COLD!  The sun left us, the wind picked up, the waves were splashin’ and we took cover and comfort with a blanket and lap dogs.  It had to be done.

Back on dry land, it was snack time.  Best almond butter ever! Paired with a lovely honeycrisp apple! Avery was “helping” feed the dogs. 

 

 

It wasn’t just me she offered to share her apple with.  Yuck!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well, I’ve run out of things to tell you.  Eric came and took the kids to his parents house, so I will be having a kid free night! Woohoo!  Crazy times to come!  Okay, so probably not, but I like to pretend I can still hang with the best of em.  There’s talk of another showing of Hot Tub Time Machine and I can’t pass that up!  G’night!
