The 4th
Family photo with my brothers, sisters and my dad and step mom.
On Sunday we headed to Jens parents. Jen took the kids to a parade while I went for a run. She forgot the sun screen and the kids got a little sun burnt. Hayley is 3.5 years old and she never got sun burn until now. Next time we take the kids somewhere we'll remember the sun screen. During the afternoon we took the kids for a swim in Jens mom's pool. It was pretty fun but the kids were all pretty tired so they didn't last that long.

The Taste of Minnesota
Jen and I took the kids to the Taste of Minnesota today. We were really nervous about it at first because the kids were pretty fussy all day. We planned on going with another couple and their kid but our plans were thrown off when our sewer backed up. We called Minnegasco and they told us they could be at our house between 5-10. So we canceled and waited. The guy showed up about 15 minutes later. He had it unclogged in about an hour and we decided to head out then. We didn't really know where to go and the roads we planned on taking were blocked off. So we kind of drove around looking for parking and we ended up parking at some house for $5. That was nice since most parking was $10 or more. The kids ended up being really good. I thought the State Fair is way better as far as food goes, but we ended up using most of our tickets on rides for Hayley anyway so it wasn't that big of a deal. When it came time to watch the fireworks we found a front row spot. We got there about an hour early and the kids ended up finding other kids to play with so time went really fast. The fireworks were awesome. I think that's the best place to watch them as they shoot them off across the river.
