Time with G & G Nordlund

Mari and I (sometimes Kyle too) spent a few days at my parents house while I was recovering from surgery on my foot. We are so thankful that we were able to have them close. We are also so thankful for Grandpa and Grandma Mueller who drove all the way from Missouri to help us out for a week. I know that Mari misses them.

Cousin Leah

Mari loves her little cousin Leah and loved giving her a "bonk" which is an equivalent of a hug from Mari.

Mari and Lili love being together, at least for a while. The usually start out with a few kisses and then maybe a glance or two and then they start to ignore each other. Of course there is always the exception when Mari would take Lili's puppy or Lili would take Mari's water. But I think in time these two will be great friends and co-conspiritors!

Mari & Balloons0

Mari loves to walk around with balloons but she always let go of them so we needed a weight on them. So I tied her balloons to her nuk and she thought it was such a blast to walk around with the balloons following her!

Cokato Corn Carnival

Aimee, Mari and I decided to play "hooky" and head to Cokato where the world (and by world I mean the little one that we grew up in) famous Corn Carnival was happening. Aimee took Mari on the Merry Go Round and she really did love it. Unlike the Merry Go Round and the zoo. But I think that Aimee may have enjoyed it a little more.

Fun with Cousins

We finally made it up to Grand Forks this summer. Mari had such fun with all of her cousins. Even Chubby enjoyed himself and decided to cool off in the pool.
