What does one do when their daughter becomes a pick pocket at two? Last night Elyse was saying her ABC’s for Grandpa, when she was done, Grandpa gave Elyse some money for her piggy bank. It wasn’t but a few minutes and Elyse slipped by Grandpa and started fishing around in his pocket. She was looking for more money. In the past she has been known to investigate stranger’s purses. Swiper!, No Swiping!

The fastest way to attract attention is…buy a 10 ft tree and parallel park with it in downtown Stillwater. That is what we did on Saturday. It was amazing how many people commented on it. We laughed as we sat on a bench close by, while we ate out ice cream. I think the most amazing part of this situation was the fact we were able to find an open spot in busy downtown that would accommodate my truck and the tree.
We took a little trip down to the farm, the place where we were married. Actually it was more of a pit stop. We ended up going out to lunch in Nelson, a town not far from the farm. It was then time to make our way down to Kellogg and visit the Lark Toy Store. They have an amazing hand carved carousel and all the toys a little 2 year old girl could hope to have in their toy box. I posted some photos of the day, look to the Flickr square to the right.
