We were back in Minnesota for cousin Miranda's wedding on October 8th. It was a beautiful wedding, and we were so happy to celebrate with Miranda and Darren - a great match. We stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Swenson and had an absolutely fabulous visit. The weather was unseasonably warm and the kids both had a great time enjoying the outdoors. Adam was constantly busy, making at least four trips to see the chickens per day. He also loved visiting Shelly, the horse, and just running around the yard in general. Clara enjoyed sitting on the deck and inspecting every leaf she could get her hands on.
Uncle Matt made a great leaf pile for Adam to run through. Adam decided it needed some maintenance and got to work.

Then Adam discovered this game...
Clara thought it was a bit much.
This was awesome. Phil and Matt had these go-karts when they were young. They have been just sitting in the barn for years, but the guys decided to try firing them up in honor of Adam's visit. After a bit of work and a trip to the hardware store - they got them running! The sun is shining right in their eyes, but it was very exciting and I'm sure it will provide some fun rides in the coming years.
Adam got to sit on the riding lawnmower, which I think he thought was a tractor.
What a great time! Can't wait to see you again at Thanksgiving, Grandpa and Grandma S!
