Emma loves to be outside. I feel bad sometimes when I see her perched in the window, I wonder if she is just wishing she could be outside. One of these days we'll be out of the apartment.
A few pictures from when we went up to Red Lake. Ryan was able to help Jeff out with his garage. I captured him up in the rafters :)

We were able to go blueberry picking on Saturday afternoon. I didn't get a picture of the blueberries that we had picked but I got a good one of Derek holding Dakota. Derek baby sat the kids while all the rest of us were in the bush picking. Emma was in the car playing around, Scotty was in the pick up sleeping and here Derek got to hold Dakota for a bit.
After blueberry picking on our way home we made a stop at Pineridge, built a fire had some tea and enjoyed a beautiful evening out as a family. What a great day and evening!! Here is my mom holding Dakota.

Just one of the pictures I took from our trip to Iowa. In the picture is Becky, Me, Dakota, Jill, Emma and Grady. We had a nice visit with Grady and Jill. It was nice of them to open their house up to us travellers. Jill and Grady are expecting their first baby beginning of December.
