When cookies attack

The Red Velvet Trauma
It was just the girls yesterday so Julia and I went for a very long walk to a park near us. We enjoyed riding on a pony and a whale and some great swim time. On our long walk back home we said we would go home and enjoy one of the red velvet cupcakes that I had picked up that morning at the grocery store.
We arrived home to find the empty container and no sign of the cupcakes and 2 very guilty dogs! After spending time get one dog to puke up the cupcakes unsure of the amount of chocolate we decided to head out to get another treat.
I took Julia to store and let her pick out what ever treat she wanted. She really wanted a “cuk cake” but once she saw the monkey cookie, she was sold.
She only ate the eyes..offering me bites of the cookie on occasion.
Black frosting covered her face, the bites out of the cookie are ones I took, we shared.
Grape Stomp
All 3 of us went to a local winery for a grape stomp festival. It was very warm for September, close to 90. We enjoyed our time but struggled to stay cool. We got some apples and made apple crisp.

Getting her “John Deere” on
The following photos were taking on our tractor ride. You can see she enjoyed it and was so engrossed in viewing the grapes and apples…
She was having so much fun she put the strap to her bag around her head, wearing it like a necklace. She also shoved her face into a flier she found in her necklace.
Apple cookie, tasty!
Dancing!
“No yike it!” not a fan of the slippery grapes.
post stomp tootsies!

State Fair
Jules got to go to the Minnesota State Fair twice this year! We went once with Auntie Sara and once with Gram and Gramps, she loved it!
We indulged in some wonderful cookies, rode on the ponies, drank chocolate milk until our bellies ached and even did some bike racing!
