Fall fun with Grandma!




 Jenny's Grandma Edith turned 95 this September!
We celebrated with the fam, and the usual DQ birthday cake!




Just a week later, we got a random phone call from my Grandma's cousin, Ingrid, who we stayed with in Sweden.  We had no idea that she was in Minnesota! She had decided to come and visit the US for her 95th birthday.  Their birthdays are 1 week apart.  We surprised my grandma by bringing her to see Ingrid.  She had no idea who it was at first.  But then, they truly enjoyed their time together.




In October, mom and I brought Grandma up to dad's cousin's farm to go on a hayride, and gather some pumpkins, gourds and Indian corn.  We got into the hayride by using the mouth of the tractor while sitting on a hay bail!




 Lots of family.


Pretty fall colors.

It was pretty chilly, so here's Grandma, all bundled up!
