Noah and I moved into our Minnesota rental property on May 21, 2012! It was a great sunny day, and the temperature was in the mid 70's so it was a perfect day for moving! My parents helped us with the move in too, so it was nice to have the extra hands! We started the day with breakfast at Keys Cafe, a neat MN staple and there is a location right by our house..perfect! The move went really well, and we had everything in and somewhat organized by room around 2:00!

Removing all the moving blankets from the furniture. |

Dad took a nap with Bailey while we worked on some dishes and Noah went to get the Cable hooked up. |
 |
Cleaning all the dishes as we unpacked...a big job that Mom & Dad helped with. |
 |
Cheers to the BIG move! ALL Done...for now! |
 |
It was time for mom's scratch off session from the $38 winnings the last week...Noah got her 3 kinds! |
 |
She started with the 4's Galore... |
 |
And they were really lucky...she won another $38!!!! Next time...Noah's turn...we will keep you posted! |
So, Lets take a look at the place now that we are all settled:

We have really gotten used to the place, and we like it a lot! We are both amazed that we found it online, and rented it without even looking inside...God was looking out for us because it is the perfect place to get re-acquainted with life in Minnesota! There are a ton of bike trails and running paths right by our house! Now we just need bikes! We also found a small lake
Carver Lake that is within running distance to our place!! We walked to it with Bailey and she absolutely loved fetching sticks and playing in it, so that will be a fun place for all of us to enjoy! When we first moved I was sad that we would no longer have a pool to chill at, but now we will have a quaint little lake to hang out at!
We also have a cute little park on the association property, so it is perfect when we have little visitors to entertain. So far, Stanley has come to play on it:

Can you tell in that face he loves to get pushed and go really high! :) |
