Family

Had a great weekend in Minnesota last weekend.  Amy, Max, Mollie, Harper and I travelled north for a 70th b-day party for our Aunt Martha at her daughter Mary's house. It was a great time. Harper was able to meet a lot of my family for the first time.  She especially loved Katie (Mary's daughter).  We are very hopefully Katie will be attending ISU in a year...that's her college of choice.  Would be so very cool to have her close-by!  The trip was great - and Harper did a pretty good job.  She did not really sleep well, and when she was up at 3:15 a.m. early Saturday morning....then causing everyone to get up at 4 a.m., Max said: "I really do not appreciate Harper waking me up so early." I agree Max....

Harper enjoying her first order of chicken fingers and fries from a restaurant.  Our picky eater really liked the fries dipped in ketchup.

Playing with the kids outside at Mary's...holding bubbles in hopes of someone blowing some her way.

She likes the stairs! Thankfully she obeys and only climbs up one or two.

One might think that Harper is holding swim goggles.  But no, these are actually "doggles".  Goggles for Mary's dog who has an eye sensitivity! Yep - doggles!

When we all get together, we spend a good hour taking photos of the different families! This is my version...I'm in the porch in Mary's house, taking photos out the window of everyone taking photos of Mary's family!  Hilarious.

Harper playing with Katie!

Harper thinking she's an American Girl Doll. That's what this little couch is made for - dollies! But Harper thought it was just the right size for her!
