As I told John, "Today was my favorite day since we moved to Eau Claire (except for when Logan was born...those were the most special days!)". This weekend was the two-year mark for us living in EC. Its amazing that time can pass so quickly on one hand, but at the same time feel as though we left Minneapolis much longer ago than that. All in all, its been a good move for us!
We had such a great weekend of being together as a family - like normal people do on weekends! So often, we are busy running around, driving to a weekend event, or packing up for a family visit that we don't have a chance to enjoy Eau Claire, our house, and each other. This is why today was my favorite day ever!
This morning, we woke up and went to church where we saw some friends and got to catch up on life. Then we went downtown for the 2nd Annual Taste of Eau Claire at Phoenix Park (one of my favorite places in this city and home of the great Farmer's Market!). We had Logan in the jogger, the sun was out, and we were all together. We saw many friends and familiar faces, ate some yummy treats, and strolled the boardwalk along the river all afternoon. What more could one really ask for on a Sunday in June?

A view of the festival from the footbridge.
The outdoor amphitheater where bands played all day.
The river and boardwalk.
This was the most popular stop today! The ice cream parlor!
My boys, hanging out in the shade after yummy snacks.
Yep...my favorite day ever. I always dream about days like this where I just get to "be" and spend time with my lovely little family. What a blessing!
