Labor Day Weekend

This weekend although a long holiday weekend, went by very fast. Friday I met Dad and Rachel at their house around 11:30 because they were nice enough to take me to the fair with them. I love the fair and due to not being able to find a job, was going to have to skip it this year. They treated me to it though and I was able to eat all kinds of yummy fair food and see all the attractions. I even convinced Dad to take a picture with me...he doesn't like being in pictures. I love going through all the animal barns. The cows are my favorite. They are just so freaking cute, I could totally spend all day with them. We also went on the ride Ye Old Mill....which is 97 years old this year. I had never been on it, and it was funny to go though. You sit in this little wooden boat that looks like it could sink any second, and float through a dark cement tunnel, where you will randomly come upon some scenes to look at. It's like Dayton's 8th flood (yes I know that's not what it's called anymore but I don't care) scenes only not even close to as exciting. ha ha

Cutest thing EVER! I just want to cuddle up with it and take a nap

Then the not so good part of the weekend. Dad told me that Grandma has breast cancer again. This is the second time she's had it. The doctor though says it's a stage 0 out of 5 (o being the best and 5 being the worst) so that part is good at least. She is going in on Wednesday this week to have it removed, but is only being sedated because the last time she was put under anesthesia she had a really hard time coming out of it, stopped breathing and ended up in the ICU with a tube down her throat to help her breath. We don't want that to happen again, so I am hoping that everything goes good for her.

Saturday morning Tony and I met up with one of his coworkers and her husband down in Cannon Falls and went on a 20 mile bike ride on the Cannon Valley Trail. It was the perfect day for it because it was nice and cool out. Then that evening Tony and I headed to his parents house to have dinner with them. We had chicken, potatoes, and salad and it was really yummy!

Sunday we didn't do anything. Just laying around the house being lazy and relaxing was enough for us that day.

Monday I decided that since I've tried the mountain biking thing a few times, I'm not really into it, so Tony and I headed to Eriks bike shop and traded in my bike for just a plain old road bike. I get to pick it up today because we spent a lot of time there yesterday and the bike wasn't quite ready at closing time.

Anyways that's my weekend in a nut shell and now I'm off to finish the homework that I slacked on....at least I've got a little more than half of it done already! Hope you had a good Labor Day Weekend also!
