Ahhh, the last nice weekend of fall. Yesterday W, M and I enjoyed visiting the Bakken Museum, where W works as the exhibit technician. It was my first visit to the Frankensteinian house on Lake Calhoun where Earl Bakken, founder of Medtronic, opened his museum of electricity (ask W sometime what "interesting" medical devices they keep in the vault :-). Later, we found a great spot under some maple trees to get some family shots and loved what we were capturing until the battery ran out on the camera- DUH!

Last night was our first night out as a couple since M was born and Auntie E came over to babysit so we could go to our friend's annual NE Mpls Halloween party. It felt good to be back in the company of adults, hanging around a bonfire, drinking weak keg beer and wearing a used clown wig and suit. Yep, that's what I call a good time!

This morning M and I met the high school girls for breakfast and talked about life, love, and reunions. Yep, our 15 year is coming up this summer. Man, we're gettin old.

Tonight M surprised us by chatting away and blowing rasperries all night..maybe we have another early talker on our hands like cousin L!
