Exploring Minnesota – New Ulm
As you can see I’m a little behind in blogging – all due to preparing for a garage sale!! I grew up in a family that had garage sales – one almost every summer it seemed when we were young. When my sister-in-law, Wendy, mentioned that she had a lot of items to donate, I…
So now what? What kind of an impact has this trip had on Dan and I? Well, first of all, here are a few things that we miss: the team bonding, the Haitian/Dominican people, the scenery, loud music, crazy driving, Manuel, the mountains, getting dirty, building/laying block, and the weather. Yeah the loud music we…
Belize City. I truly had no idea what to expect. In fact, this whole trip we didn’t know what to expect. In fact, in LIFE…I don’t know what to expect. That is a lesson God has been continually teaching me. Don’t expect – live in faith. When we told people we were going to Belize,…
Have you ever done something and felt like you gave it your all? You gave every ounce of your energy, your brain is completely fried, your body is screaming because it can barely pick itself up off of a chair, and like I said, you literally have nothing left? When Mazy turned 18 months old,…
Have you ever thought about what happens when you die? I’m sure most of us have, to some degree. Well, from Angel Studios, who brought to you The Chosen, Sound of Freedom, comes a new movie called, After Death, is coming to theaters on October 27. This movie is based on the true accounts of…
I have to admit, this is maybe some of the worst weather we have had since moving out here to Minnesota! Not that we have gotten dumped on with snow, but the combination of the snow and WIND, has left monumental (literally) effects. School is cancelled tomorrow, in which we are not surprised! Dan and…

Kristin!! I would totally go to New Ulm this summer with you! I love looking at the historical sites around the area! 🙂 You should head to Montevideo sometime and check out the Pioneer village! But go this summer, when you can walk around! Then the boys and I can go too! They are awesome sites! <3
Wow we just have so much in common! Dan and I both enjoy historical sites. We will definitely have to go both places this summer!
You had fun cleaning? The only time that happens to me is if I have company to talk to and keep the kids out from under my feet! April is right though, Pioneer Village is SO much fun! There are some really cool historical spots down in the Minnesota River valley about 30-45 minutes south of us too … old farmsteads, sites of Indian attacks, and 2 miles west of Pburg is a farm that actually is listed as a historical site because Indians once camped there on their way to the massacres in the river valley.
Ang – that is good to know about the Minnesota River valley too! I never even heard of it :). That is why asking people where to go (people who live here) is so much easier instead of meandering around towns, aimlessly. I LOVE old farmsteads and what not! Thanks for the info and if you have anymore, let me know!
