If you’re willing to go on a little drive, A Maze’n Farmyard in Eden Valley, Mn is a great time. Granted, it’s a bit west of the city, but you can spend all day there. For $10 we enjoyed: Mini Golf Bounce Houses Giant Slide Maze (not corn, but cool) Feeding goats, pigs, ducks and […]

Found the worlds largest ball of twine!
We stumbled across the worlds largest ball of twine today. It’s located in Darwin, Mn and it’s just as amazing as it sounds! Weird reflection thanks to the sun.
Fun Day At The Minnesota Zoo
Spent the day at the Minnesota Zoo today. We met all the animals and played in the splash park. We even saw the farm animals but it still seems weird to go to the zoo to see cows. They also have a nice new outdoor themed play area for all ages.

Lily found a dragonfly on her play house today. He stayed there nearly all day too and allowed us to get an up close and personal look at the amazing insect. You can see an even bigger version on Flickr.
This is why we live outside the city.
We live outside the city because of views like this from our backyard. We see trees, not houses, we have a large yard for our daughter to run around in, and we have the ability to look up at night and see stars. It is quiet, it is spacious, and it is beautiful.

Who wants to create a new pop band from Minnesota? Calling it One Below. It’ll be cool.
From Verizon to T-Mobile – My Review
We’ve been on T-Mobile for a few months now and I have to say that we’re pretty happy. Sure, T-Mobile isn’t the perfect carrier, but then again, all carriers have their flaws. Price The first thing we love is the price. T-Mobile is quite a bit less than Verizon. The amount of money we’re saving […]
Welcome Back Amazon Affiliate Money
I was pretty bummed out when Amazon closed all the Minnesota affiliate accounts last year. I didn’t make a lot of Amazon, but $10 here, $10 there adds up and gave me a bit of spending money. Starting today, I’m back in the game! On October 1st, Amazon started collecting Minnesota sales tax. Since this […]
