Plans are to enjoy Tuff's family for a few weeks in Colstrip, Montana and then move on to Billings. We will keep you updated on our ventures going forward.
In the meantime saying goodbye to my family here has been very difficult. Just thinking about Grace growing up far away makes me so sad.
No one will miss Grace more than Oma.
Great Grandpa Rueben and Grace.
Our neighbors, the Israelson's, threw a neighborhood party tonight. It was so nice to get to see everyone and to be able to say goodbye. We had such a complete summer with all these great people around.
Also on the goodbye docket was goodbye golf clubs. Into the cargo trailer you go.
Backing up a bit, on Halloween we really got into dress up with Grace. Its the first year we stayed in and didn't go to a function so Tuff and I didn't dress up. Outfit number one.

Then Oma took us to the community theater and we found wigs! Rapunzel Goodie.
Tina Turner Goodie.
Pippi Long Stocking Goodie.

My parents traveled to Hawaii over the last two weeks to watch my little sister Cydney play in one of her last collegiate golf tournaments. She is a senior at North Dakota State University.
My mom in the photo below, enjoying the warmth of Hawaii. We were enjoying the snow back in Minnesota.
They brought back Hawaiian outfits for everyone as souvenirs. Beck and Bo below wearing their Hawaiian made clothes.
We visited my brother Derek and family in Princeton, Minnesota and dropped off their Hawaiian goods. Lukas, Soren and Bjorn below (impossible to get all three to look).
Even Grace got to be a Hawaiin princess.
With just a few days left, Tuff is hitting the river for fish as usual. He ties his pole to the scooter and drives out to his favorite river spots. Even the cold weather doesn't stop him!
He caught about 25 fish the other day and kept five for dinner.

Our friends Kate and Jerrod just adopted a baby boy, Peyton, in October. Last Friday we got the chance to meet him. Brand new and such a miracle!
We discovered a balancing trick Grace can't get enough of. She just loves hanging out on one hand. Watch the video below.

Grace learned to wave hi and bye. Captured in the video below.

The next update will be from Montana. Signing out Minnesota.
