Minnesota Doncha Know!

End of the month!  Better get one in to keep up with my goal!  Here it is…

So much to blog about! Where to begin?  Seeing my track record in blogging about things that happened in the past, I should probably start with my trip to Minnesota.  Also, from here on out, you should probably read this with a Minnesotan accent [think the movie Fargo (different yes, but similar), if you are unfamiliar].  Why?  Because it’s so fun, ya know!  (Anything in parentheses you can read in your regular “Katie” voice… Also, score for me for getting to use brackets!  Okay, back to the Minnesotan accent.)

Getting up to the Twin Cities really frosted my butt, don’t ya know.  Da plane outta Louisville was delayed, so I missed my connection in Chicago and hadta stay overnight.  By da time I made it up to da Cities, I was in desperate need of comfy shoes, a hot shower, and a hug.  Luckily, Beth helped me with alla dose things. Dat evening we headed up to the local watering hole, Tootsie’s.  Stephen even decided to come wit!  It’s a fun little spot fer sure.  We had some drinks, played some pull tabs den headed back to der house to relax and get to bed at a decent time.

Da next morning Beth and I got ready for da Twins game and headed over to da Nort Star station.  Der was some innerestin’ people watching after alla da people got on da train.  Thanks to a nice co-worker, Beth got great tickets, not dat it helped da Twinkies win.  We still had a fantastic time.  After a stop for a delicious deep fried dinner, we headed back to der house to cheer on da Cats and get invitations ready for Ari’s baby shower.

On Sunday, Beth and I made a big pot of chili and the tree (3) of us, settled in for a day of football and relaxin ya know.  Monday came way to quickly and soon as you know it, I was on a plane and on my way back to Kentucky.

(Okay, you can exit Minnesota speak now.)  Yes, that was not my best blog.  Minnesotan is a hard “language” to conquer!  Seriously though, this was one of the best trips I have made to Minnesota.  I didn’t get sick once and we really had an amazing time.  Besteban (their couple name) are phenomenal hosts.  I always loathe leaving.  Now for what you really want, pictures!
