This past weekend, we had some new visitors! Michael's sister Lauren and her husband Luke (or L&L as we refer to them!) came up for a long weekend for their first visit to Minnesota! We had a great time with them!
Friday, we just did the touristy stuff in the cities: Mall of America, Cathedral, Cherry and the Spoon. That night we went to a trendy little place downtown called the Local for dinner.
Saturday, we had a fun filled day. We drove up to Duluth and stopped all along the way taking beautiful pics of all the fall colors. We saw Lake Superior and then headed a bit further north to Gooseberry Falls - some beautiful water falls in the middle of a big park/forest area. Then we went to an old famous light house called Split Rock lighthouse...it is on the edge of this really high cliff overlooking Lake Superior. We were there at sunset and it was just gorgeous - a bit chilly, but gorgeous! :)
Sunday, we went to the apple orchard and picked 2 pecks of apples. And as you can guess it - we now have apples coming our of our eyeballs! :) Lauren and I made a yummy homemade apple pie while Michael whipped up some pecan crusted pan fried walleye fish for dinner. YUM! We had a feast! :)
Here are some pics from our fun weekend:

Us having way too much fun with our shadows on the walk back to the car - we laughed so hard doing this...haha (especially since cars were driving by as we were doing it!)
