An Exciting Day!

So, Sam's little adventure to Buffalo Wild Wings did not go as smoothly as we had hoped. We met some family and friends there, and we think he was overstimulated from all the noise and getting passed around from person to person. Peter and I had to take shifts dealing with a crying baby in the car for close to an hour before he calmed down enough to go back inside. That's pretty unusual for him, so we think he's not a fan of buffalo wings! I guess we'll wait a bit before we try the restaurant thing again. We were excited though that Reed and his girlfriend, Sarah, also stopped by. It was great to see them since they don't get a chance to make it up from Mankato too often.

Anyway, onto today! It started out pretty normal. I was working on homework while Peter and Samuel were hanging out and playing together. Then, with it being such a beautiful fall day, we decided to take Oscar to the dog park. We used to do this much more often, but since Sam has been born, it's usually just Peter and Oscar that go. Today, Sam and I got to go to! We all had a good time and enjoyed some fresh air.


When we got home from the dog park, my sister Amy called to say she got engaged!!!!! We can't wait to see them tomorrow when we get together to watch the Vikings game (and yes, we will accept Luke into the family even though he is a Packers fan!!!). Congratulations to them both. We are very excited!
