So, it's no secret that Josh and I don't have much of a "refined palate". There is evidence of this in the fact that Josh's all time favorite place to eat is the Der Dutchman. This Amish restaurant is the epitome of down home cooking (maybe that is why he likes it, one of the few times he gets home cookin :) and the "Barn Raising buffet" is sure to please every time. Yesterday we decided to make the pretty country drive to the Der Dutchman. We went early in the evening and you'd better believe we were the youngest ones there by at least 40 years (old people love this place...and buffets). In the restaurant they have one buggy booth, the type of buggy pulled by horses, that the Amish still use today for transportation. Well, we couldn't resist the opportunity to dine in true Amish style (and we thought Bailee would enjoy it). So, I guess the secret is out, all the Deans need for a good time and fine dining is a buffet and a buggy...who'd a thought?!

Yum! I would love to try an Amish restaurant. Unfortunately they don't have those in MN! My boyfriend's stepdad is from Ohio, therefore he is a HUGE Ohio State fan and it rubs off on me. Go Bucs!
How cute! You guys look great! The look on Bailee's face is PRICELESS! I hope you guys are doing well. We miss you!
Love ya!

SWEET! That's totally a place Brad and I would enjoy!
Ahhh... the Der Dutchman and the memories. Wish we could have sat in the buggy. Such a pretty drive this time of year. You all look great, miss ya!
Hey Karlie it's Charity! I am loving the blogging world...it's amazing how many people you find! Your family is so cute!
That place looks pretty sweet. Where's it at? Had's never been to any Amish stuff, so i need to take him. Oh and we're planning a temple trip. Guess what that means?!!! P.S. Cute shoes in that picture.
Ha! That is perfect. We went to plainsville or whatever today and it is really a gorgeous drive.
Hey Karlie! I tried to find your e-mail address, but can't. I wanted to ask you about the bows you have made for Bailee. Specificly the ones you wrap around the spool and bake? Could you e-mail me at studio.ck@hotmail.com when you get a chance so I can ask you a few questions?
Thanks!
That is awesome. Any resturant with a true buggy table should be on everyones must see lists. I love your posts, they always make me laugh.
I love the amish - in High School we went on a trip for History to Amish country and a few other places and got to eat with Amish - their peanut butter is to die for!!!
So fun! We loved going there with you guys and the Warcups last year - so yummy! So pretty sure we never see you on that other side of town you moved to. Hmm, maybe I'll come visit you :)
