After the market.....

We headed to Stillwater (my hometown) to have lunch with my mom and dad at the Dock Cafe. After a tasty meal we walked around downtown Stillwater to check out Lumberjack Days...there are always a ton of people out and a ton of boats in the water!

Watch out Minneapolis!!!

We are in town! We flew into the great city of Minneapolis early on Friday the 25th and headed straight to the farmers market. I miss the Minneapolis Farmers Market soooo much! Where else can you get 2 boxes of strawberries, 1 box of blueberries, 1 box of raspberries and 4 nectarines for only $6!?!?! Also they have the best Bratwursts ever from Tollefson Farm. Here are some pics of all the yummy foods and some other things.

We're baaack!

So we got home late last night and went straight to bed so I could get up early this morning and go to work! So obviously I don't have much time to blog nor have I had time to upload my 700 pictures (gotta love digital!!) to my computer to share the highlights with you! I will be back later to start sharing!!

We are in MN!

Well, the last few days have been crazy! We left Athens very early
Friday morning (5am) after a restless night of sleep (aka 2 hours) to
go to Atlanta. We got to the airport on time, boarded the plane, and we
both planned on sleeping the 2 1/2 hour flight.Until..... the kid next
to us started throwing temper tantrums and of course the parents
couldn't care less. So we got a little sleep on the plane and my mom
picked us up from the airport in Minneapolis.

I would love to share more, but unfortunately I cant get my pictures to upload and it just wouldn't be right to blog about my trip with out pictures!! So you will have to wait! :)

Leaving on a Jet Plane...

Well it is almost 11pm and we will be getting up in about 4 hours to fly to Minneapolis, MN. Our flight leaves at 8:15 therefor we need to leave Athens around 5:30 to drive to Atlanta, park our car, hop on a shuttle and get to the airport. We will arrive in MPLS around 9:45 and hang out with my mom and dad for the day....then we will spend the night with Eric's family. Saturday we will be at a cousin's wedding and on Sunday we drive to International Falls, MN.....so until I have time to blog....see you on the flip side!! :)

Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii

OK....so you are probably wondering who is Talula!?! No....I did not go to Hawaii, nor do I know anyone named Talula. Apparently, "Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii" is the name a little girl from New Zealand was given when she was born. What was this parent thinking!?!?!
I came across this story on CNN.com and I just couldn't believe some of the other names it listed that people actually named their children! Now I am all about unique names...but "Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii"....come on people!

So what I want to know is...have you ever met anyone with an unusual name? Or maybe you hate the name your parents gave you. Please share with us!! It cant be as bad as "Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii" :)
