mn trip #1 - floodwood/cromwell

same trip, just another couple of towns. i realized as i was uploading the pictures from the wedding, that it was going to be a LARGE post if i put up all the pictures. so, using my noodle, i decided to break it down into smaller posts.

we had a great time hanging out with my side of the family. both mom and dad have cabins, so some time was spend at both. we had plenty of time to relax with family! the following pictures were taken in the floodwood area.

mn trip #1 - weekend in owatonna

tim and i ventured up to mn the 3rd weekend in june for my cousin ryan's wedding. while we were in southern mn, we decided to visit tabs at work in northfield. we walked around downtown and took in the yummy scents wafting from the malt-o-meal plant!
