Ellie started 4th grade early last week. It was a bittersweet day for me that was made easier through the photos that were sent by my husband and son. It was the first first day of school that I wasn’t there. I started working on a project out of town. My husband captured this enthusiastic start to her first day of 4th grade.

Ellie learned to bake Grandma Penny’s banana bread, the best banana bread in the whole world!
Ellie and I had an adventure on the train. She saw Minnehaha Falls for the first time and it was roaring! Then we continued to downtown Minneapolis where she was fascinated with revolving doors.
4th of July always includes sparklers around here:
I rode in the Tour of Saints bike ride with my Dad, brother and nephew.
Made lots of snow cones for Ellie and her friends on hot days!
Anna got her drivers permit! Look out!
And I went tubing on the Mississippi River at Dana and Dan’s 40th birthday bash!
