Stout Saturday with Sophia

We went to UW-Stout last Saturday to see Sophia. Lots to show and tell!

On Our Way
First we had to get comfy and tucked into the car. It was chilly when we started out from The Grove.

President Obama Declares Dorm Room a Disaster Area
One look in Sophia and Jill's room and we knew we had to get the President on the line to have their room declare an unnatural disaster area. Whew, just in a nick of time before mid-terms. This dog was barred from taking photos of the area, but rest assured, I saw it with my own two brown eyes.
After an campus potty break, we hit the road for our next stop.
Norske Nook Here We Come!
Our next stop was Norsk Nook in Osseo, WI where we were looking forward for some good home cooking.

The roast beef with gravy, mash potatoes and bread is delish! But Sophie's fav these days is the Norweigan Pancakes (also a fav of Gram's).
But save room for the pies. Like the sign says, "Pie Fixes Everything" and their pies have been our favorite family fix since before Sophia was born!

Just before we head out, a to-go order for the road -- a piece of cherry pie for Sophia's roomate, Jill, another piece of banana cream pie and lefsa for Sophia.

Sight Seeing in Osseo

Sophia checks out the kind of creepy figurine (troll?) that has been there since she was about as tall as that troll. Wish we could find that old photo!

What a Day!
We then headed back to Stout, dropped of Sophia and headed for home. It was nice to see my sis again!
