Yesterday evening as I was preparing dinner for my family, I found myself thinking about what an incredible summer it had been. It was our first full, Minnesota summer with our son, who will be turning 1 in just six days (tear, sniff-sniff)! We had taken advantage of at least one day each weekend to hike our tails off and enjoy the warm sun, green trees and crystal clear lakes. During the we...
