Mall of America

You can't visit Minnesota without visiting the Mall of America, this is one place that we make sure all of our house guest visit! We did a little bit of ride riding, shopping, eating and cheese sampling. It was a fun day! Mike, Michael, Pauline and Danny all went on the skateboard, it made me sick just watching the ride. The ride did a whole lot of spinning and going up real high!










Fabulous Fall Fun

On Saturday we went to an apple orchard in Still Water the scenery is Amazing and so is all the food they have there, later that night we had a "APPLE" theme dinner: apple brats, honey crisp apples and dip, and apple cider. Fabulous!!

















A Special Day

Emily was baptized on Saturday, we are so pleased with Emily's decision to be baptized and for choosing the right! We were blessed to have a lot of family and friends there that came to support Emily on her Special Day!






One!

I can't believe my baby boy is one year old! We celebrated his birthday with Grandma and Grandpa Hobbs and aunt Pauline and uncle Danny at the Mall of America.



We took Mason into a toy store and he picked out a couple of his favorite toys.





Mason is getting way too big! He started walking a couple weeks before his birthday and is getting more teeth everyday. He loves his family very much; almost as much as we all LOVE him. He brings so much laughter into our house!!
Happy Birthday Buddy!!






Back to Reality

We have NO routine in the summer, we all stay up waaay too late and sleep in waaay too late! So as hard as it is to say goodbye to the summer months it's always nice to get back to a routine and be doing the things we all should be doing. So here we go for another school year! Ashley is a junior this year and is actually counting down the months that she'll leave for college.
Madisyn started middle school this year, she is in 6th grade and is liking school so far.

Emily started 3rd grade and LOVE, LOVE, LOVES her teacher this year!



Hannah started preschool, she goes one day a week to the school districts preschool and two days a week to a little joy school that my friend and I are doing. She Loves them both!

Dear Summer

Why did you have to go? You never visit long enough! I will miss all the things you bring along with you, lake days, bbq's with friends, flip flops, sunshine, late nights and sleeping in late, sun glasses, swim suits, green grass, pretty flowers, my garden, sand castles, bonfires, picnics, and visiting Utah!













We will miss you and are eagerly waiting for your next visit!
Love,
The Hobbs'
