Busy weekend

We did quite a few things this last weekend.

On Friday we were suppose to be helping MB's parents loading their moving truck, however, they received a call earlier in the day informing them that it might take 24-48 hours for a truck to be available. So loading was postponed until further notice.

I also had my Fantasy Football draft at 8 that night at Mark's. It went pretty fast considering that quite a few people were drafting over the phone or via paper draft sheets. Plus the Vikings Game was on. I ended up doing pretty well. MB spent most of the night holding and entertaining Sidney.

After the late night we found out that MB's parents were able to get a truck the next morning but weren't sure exactly when. They ended up getting a truck at about ten the next morning.

We ended up getting there around eleven and loaded for about three hours. There is still a lot of stuff that needs to be moved. The closing is currently scheduled for next Friday. So right now they only have about four more days to get everything moved.

We spent the rest of Saturday putting away the rest of the kitchen items. So, there are no longer any boxes on the dining room floor. Slowly but surely everything is finding its place.

On Sunday we went to the Minnesota State Fair. We didn't find out until later that it tied the hottest day on record at the fair. It ended up being 97 degrees. That explains why we kept drinking fluids all day. Every time we finished a drink we were looking for another stand to get lemonade. Ended up eating a few different things. Turkey drumstick, apple fritters, loaded pack potato skins, cheese curds, turkey sandwich, and again lots of lemonade, water, and a slushy.
