September highlight:
Ryan and I experienced our first Jesse James Day experience. Jesse James Day (aka the Northfield town days) is not just a regular celebration. People from all over the US come to Northfield to celebrate the day Jesse James tried to rob First National Bank, but was defeated. You would say Jesse James Days is the state fair of Northfield. Both of our parents and my brother and his girlfriend came down to join in the festivities. My dad and I even ran in the Jesse James 15K. Yes you have that correct if you do the math it is 9.32 miles! It was not the longest, but the most horrible race I have ran. Imagine yourself running on a country road and you see nothing but sun, hills, and corn fields. YET, I will be the crazy one to run it again next year.
October highlights:
October was more eventful for us. October 1st our fabulous friends, Jay and Katie Kasner, got married in the twin cities. They had a beautiful day and was fun to catch up with friends.
We also celebrated a special 3rd birthday for my cousin's child, Brielle. It was a day filled with dolls, Tinkerbell, and playtime! My inter-child came out that day when I spent the day outside with my godchild, Gavin.
November:
November has slipped by us. We haven't done much besides work, work, work. Ryan helped his parents on their farm. Getting ready for winter has been a chore for us too because we are homeowners this year.
We have been taking care of my parents dog, Maddie. My parents decided it was a good idea to take a Mediterranean Cruise for a couple of weeks (of course they didn't ask me to join them!). It was a trip "for adults." ;) So since they are sailing the seas this Thanksgiving, my brothers and I will celebrate at Grandma and Grandpa Huxford's this year. I am excited to see my brothers, Logan especially, (I haven't seen him since he left for school in September), and also my uncle and cousins. I hope you all get to share a simular Thanksgiving experience with friends and family!
I will post pictures soon!
