trip to mn


This summer has been full of traveling for the Liefers. The 2nd week of August we made the 8 hr. drive up north to visit Kelly's family one last time before baby Liefer comes. Here's our trip in pictures ...

Kelly LOVES ice cream. Kelly's 6 yr. old nephew LOVES ice cream. He had the brilliant idea that they should each get a box of ice cream popsicles (12 ct.) and race to see who eats more and then they will know who loves ice cream the most.

Todd and Kelly spent lots of time with Kelly's nephews. They took Todd to one of the coolest playgrounds in Fairmont. I think Todd had even more fun than the little boys.

Kelly's mom gave her a great baby shower at their church. About 20 family/friends came to celebrate, and play some crazy games that mom came up with. (They played the game where you guess how much yarn it takes to go around Kelly's belly and let's just say that she is feeling pretty good about herself when she learned that her strand of yarn is smaller than all 3 of her brothers!)


Katie, Kelly, and Amanda had a blast hanging out in Fairmont for a night. Just like old times in high school. Lots of talking, laughing, ice cream, and even an adventure where they may have gotten a bit lost.

Todd finally was able to experience the amazing Martin County Fair, "Minnesota's Biggest Little Fair." He won a game of Bingo, walked through the midway and lots of booths, went to a concert, and here he is trying his first ever deep fried oreo, yum! Tastes like a donut!


Most of all, our 7 days in MN were filled with lots of relaxation!
