Day in the Life of an Idiot

I'll have pictures to share tomorrow, but I just wanted to record that Mason and I spent the last FOUR HOURS at Minnehaha Park. It was pure awesome. We hiked the trail to the Mississippi River and then sat along the banks building sandcastles. Only half-way through this monumental undertaking did it occur to us to wonder if it was actually "legal" to mess around with the shoreline in a city park. Uh... too late! Because mess we did. In fact, we just had to take baths to get all the sands out of our behinds.

To top the day off, we had a classic banana split at DQ.

Then we got to pick up a couple more books that had come into interlibrary loan for Mason at our Mirrim Branch Library. Ah, a perfect summer day conquered!
