Happy 100th Birthday

This year, Meade Electric is celebrating their 100th birthday. To help celebrate, they took all of their employees and family to Great America for the day on Sunday! We got free parking, free entrance, free lunch, a free photo, and even a free t-shirt! (Of course, everyone had to match..)

(Yes, we're in green again, but these shirts say MEADE on them)

Since no one in the Knutson family (that was going) goes on rides, I got to bring Jennifer!

The weather wasn't great, meaning, Jennifer and I got drenched waiting in line for our favorite ride (Raging Bull) while it poured on us. We were at the park from 11 - 6:30 and made it on 3 rides (and Raging Bull was 2 of those 3).... We still had a great time!

Here is the Knutson Fam in front of a 1937 Ford Meade Truck

Since no one seems to be looking at this camara, I'm assuming there is a better picture floating around on the camara we were looking at.

Morning Routine

I wake up between 5:15 and 5:40 to get ready for the day; am downstairs between 6 and 6:15 to check emails and watch any shows on the DVR that I am behind with. Kids start waking up around 7. The order varies; sometimes Aubry comes downstairs to snuggle for a few minutes before we go get M&G together, or, I have to get her out of bed after M&G are already up and changed. Breakfast begins. We change it up each morning between apple toast, veggie muffins, pop tarts, pancakes, cereal, and yogert. On Mondays and Tuesdays, there is no rush to get cleaned up and ready to leave; Grandma Karen arrives around 8. Other days we scramble to get hands and face washed, shoes on, coats on, toys put away, and to-go bags ready (backpacks and/or ballet bag, and diaper bag). Our goal is to be in the car ready to go by 8:15. The drop off at Grandma Nancy's is followed with dropping off Aubry at preschool at 8:55. And then I am off to work.
