Welcome to East Grand Forks, the part that's in Minnesota

Funky little water tower-- at least I'm assuming that's what it is...

The landscape: cold, flat, gray, and abundant with agriculture

another little tower in Fargo

outside of Kroll's diner-- I literally had heartburn all day after eating at this place, but it was SO yummy!

So weird that they would name a gas station the "Kum & Go"-- don't ask for details people...just laugh and move on

The Fighting Sioux 

at a hockey game-- it was so fun!

We didn't really dress appropriately (in green), but the people behind us sure did!

Last weekend Josiah and I packed up and headed to the far parts of the world (North Dakota) for our second wedding reception in Grand Forks.  It was great to meet ALL of his extended family and spend time with his immediate family as well.  Thanks to Jessica (Josiah's sister) for all the special effort you put in to that weekend and to Ryan and Krista (cousins)-- the food was incredible.  And we also appreciate Josiah's parents for letting us stay with them.  I wish we would have taken more pictures for everyone to see-- I'll try to get more from my mom.
