First peek of the Twin Cities and Wood family

I was prepared for anything weather wise, but managed to be greeted with a beautiful autumn weekend.  I think Ethan ordered it for me so that I would leave more smitten than planned.  Right, counselor?  Ethan made sure I saw and did it all:  the kids, dinner with the Butts, seeing popular sights, dinner with the Korths, and more time with the kids. I think we bought the ginny pig cage that weekend, right?  Little did we know what we were entering into that day.  Oh my!  I greeted the Farmington Ward that would become "our first ward."  I flew home to Utah with a tentative wedding date under my hat.  It was a packed weekend to say the least.

Minnehaha Falls

La Crosse, Wisconsin--we visited there again the first year we were married.

Lindsey's swim school lessons

Girl scout excursion to the amazing Science Museum

Not sure whose birthday we celebrated with this yummy cake, but the cake was a hit!

The final remains for Lindsey's 2013 garden--cucumbers and tomatoes!
