Thank you for visiting Mammaw!

We were so happy to have Mammaw come and visit this past week. We had a nice visit with a good balance of activity and some time for the boys to just be themselves and entertain her! Mammaw was convinced she was going to turn our "no" boy (Lukie) into a "yes" boy. I regret to report that I cannot say Mission Accomplished! You can't tame this wild mustang!

It was a beautiful day on Thursday so we headed to downtown Minneapolis to visit my office and coworkers at Target. She got to see my new office and great view of the Twin's Stadium. ;) Then we took a stroll down Nicollet Mall and enjoyed the Farmer's Market and finally took a spin past the stadium before heading back to the Grove. Friday was spent getting some things ready for the party and relaxing. Saturday was the big day and it never really stopped after the party either. We had kids in and out of the house all day. Saturday night our new friends and neighbors, the Jennings, had us over for dinner and drinks. It was so much fun and my Mom had a nice time visiting with their Grandma who is temporarily living with them. Sunday we all needed a break so we headed down to the pool after lunch. Blake got to show off all of his new swimming skills to Mammaw and Luke showed what a little dare devil he is too! Kurt was nice enough to take the boys back to the house for naps after swimming and my Mom and I got to lay at the pool for a while and relax. Sunday evening we went to dinner at Rush Creek. It was so yummy and we literally had the whole place to ourselves. Finally today she met her toughest challenge yet...watching both boys while Kurt and I went back to work. I know she enjoyed it, but I'm sure she will be ready to go back home and get some real relaxation!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time spent with her and are so happy she could come. Hopefully she will get to come back again this year...and drag their buddy Pappaw with her!!Thank you for the wonderful memories Mom!!
