Tailgating and more...

Ryan and I left the girls in the hands of Grandma Jan yesterday and spent the entire day getting ready and cheering for the Vikings. It was a wonderful day to tailgate for 4 hours before the game! The girls had fun playing at the park, twice, and having Grandma Jan all to themselves.

Ryan and the girls, Logan, Hunter, Vicky and Maddi

We play "washers", which I'm terrible at, and Maddi is REALLY good at. She opted to do some cheering and spelled out names like Y-M-C-A. Thanks for the great pics Maddi!

It was a long game, I literally sat on the edge of my seat the entire game and was visibly shaking at the end. But finally, a Vikings WIN!

SKOL!!

After a gorgeous August afternoon of heat (and some humidity), the temps cooled off just in time for the Vikings first pre-season game. Regan was all ready to cheer them on from the pool deck, Vikings floaties and all!

Sidney skipped the evening swim and came inside with me to actually watch the game. I couldn't resist putting on her garb :)

As much as I love football season and watching the Vikes, I'm so not ready to call an end to this MN summer. I don't look forward to months and months of cold, wet, snow. So Mr. Sun, please stick around for a very long time and keep us warm and humid!
