Believe it or not, we had even more fun to document during our time in MN!! Like how the weather was beautiful, although a bit humid if you ask us Arizonans but it was nice! Popsicles every day!
On Tuesday Sara spent the day in the Cities. First off was meeting a very good friend's 5 day old baby!!! Little Nicholas was just too cute and snuggly!
Then she met another very good friend for lunch! Thanks Barb for coming across town so we could do that! It's so fun to catch up with friends while in MN but of course there is never enough time to see everyone so Sara will see the friends she missed next trip hopefully! While Mommy was away the kids had a special day with Nana Jeanne and Papa Steve. Apparently it rained a lot down in Owatonna and the kids thought that was pretty fun. They don't really know what rain or mud is any more!!
Mommy got home in time to go to wine tasting with her Mom and Dad at the local Elks club. What a fun event!! Made Mommy miss small town living though! Where were the kids you ask? Nana Jeanne and Papa Steve's neighbor Samantha watched the kids. Put them to bed and everything! So nice!
On Wednesday we met a good family friend at Sara's favorite pizza place (and the place she used to work) in Waseca and then headed up to the Cities so that the Roslansky cousins could play again! Jim and Annie have a special perk from a friend of theirs that owns a restaurant....free dinner! The boys are just so cute together!
Speaking of cute together so are the little girls! Ellie always tries to take Ashley's nuk even though she doesn't use one! Stinker!
The kids all gathered around Uncle Jim. He's like a magnet for fun!
On Thursday we spent the day at home. No plans, which was nice since we'd been on the go since we flew into St. Louis on Wednesday! Ashley has become even more of a big girl on this trip. No high chair for her. She lets us know when and what she wants to eat then proudly sits all by herself at the special little table!
We had a wonderful meal on the grill for lunch proceeded by daytime s'mores! Hardly needed a fire with it being so hot or should we say hardly needed a hot marshmallow to melt the chocolate.
YUM!
Big girl is also all done with a sippy cup! Big girls only drink from big cups!
Trevor discovered his new BFFs....worms. All boy this one!
Ewww!
The kids helped Nana Jeanne water some new plants!
And then we went to feed the ducks. It looks here like Trevor is aiming right for the duck but that really wasn't the case!
Ashley's version of feeding the ducks is to eat the bread herself!
Trevor discovered another spot that had a lot of ducks...
...and before you know it Trevor had ducks swimming from all over for his bread!
Then we did some swinging. As it turns out Ashley now likes to swing. She didn't really enjoy it before!
Weeeeeeeeeeee!
Then off to before dinner ice cream! Trevor ate his special sprinkle cone no problem but Ashley wanted anyone's that wasn't hers!
She for sure didn't want to be neat and use a spoon!
No, that would be too easy! It's much preferred to eat half the side of the cone then smash it up to your face. Such a dainty eater LOL
So all in all we had a wonderful time in Minnesota with everyone. Trevor was so sad at the airport. He didn't want to leave. He was afraid of never seeing Nana and Papa Steve again :-( He then talked for the next hour about moving to Minnesota. We'll see if he still feels that way if we go back in the winter!!!
