Garth and Thanksgiving

I guess I need to catch up a bit on blogging.  In November, Cory and I went to the Garth Brook's concert in Minneapolis.  It was a blast!  Garth is an amazing performer.  While waiting for the show, we made some time to hit a new brewery (for us), Fulton.
 We walked right past Target Field, so, of course, Cory needed his picture taken there!
Here are a few pictures from the concert.  Not the best from the cell phone, but proof we were there!
 
For Thanksgiving, we headed to MT.  We didn't take too many pictures, but the kids did have a great time building a snow family one day.

 We managed to get everyone together for a family picture, too.

Way to GO SIOUX!

We had a great time going to the Sioux hockey games in Colorado Springs last month.  The Sioux played great and got the sweep!   
 Waiting for the team to come out for warm-ups.
 Woohoo!
 
 
Green man came out for the Saturday game!
Send 'em out, Hack!
 
 My two favorite Sioux fans!
 Happy Sioux fans!

Our runner

K's annual school fundraiser - the "Fox Trot" - happened at the beginning of Oct.  All the kids run laps and Kaylynn ran 7.5 this year - about 2.2 miles in 20 min!  She did great.  Here are a few pictures from the event.

Here is her class picture

 This was a great warm-up for the Free to Breathe 5K we all ran the following weekend.  K got second place again this year!  She is turning into a good little runner!  It was fun to have Grandpa and Grandma join us this year, too.

Pickin' hops

I went to the Hops and Heifers farm to pick hops way back in August.  It was a beautiful day and a lot of fun!  While I am not the biggest fan of hoppy beer, it was a neat experience.

 This was our ride!
 The goat thought it might be fun to ride, too!
