Conner and Mom fly North

It has been quite awhile since I have found the time to tell you all about the fun we have been having during the end of summer and start of fall

Conner and I recently had a chance to fly up North and spend some time with Nana and Pappy.  Conner was a great flier – a real champ!  Now that he is two he gets his own seat.  He spent the majority of the flight looking out the window narrating the view. 

When we arrived at Nana and Pappy’s Conner discovered the garden!  I have never seen a child so excited to harvest carrots!

Every day of our trip was filled with fun and excitement!!  I think that the train museum, apple picking and Snuffy’s might have been Conner’s favs!!  For those of you not from St. Paul – Snuffy’s is one of the best burger and malt shops in town!!   Conner and I both got our first taste/love of malts at Snuffy’s at about the same age!  Now my little man is addicted to strawberry malts!!!



Apple Picking was so much fun!  Conner must have eaten an apple off of every tree in the orchard!  After picking our fill of apples, Conner and Pappy spent some “guy time” riding John Deer tractors.  We all waited really patently for a hay-ride.  One the way home we all discovered that Conner a pop-corn addict!  “More please” was all we heard on the ride home from the orchard.






At the train museum Conner got to drive Thomas the Train and Percy!  He must have spent about 30 minutes going from one train to the other!  (for those of you that have 2 yr olds or know any, 30 minutes of concentrated play with one thing is kind of amazing!) 





There were so many other wonderful adventures on this trip.  Conner is still talking about riding a plane to “innesota”.  We had a great time and can’t wait to see all the Northern Family again during the Holidays!
