My most recent MN trip was for Samantha's Wedding, including the bachelorette party, wedding prep, last-minute to-do's, and dancing the night away. However, I still had plenty of time for family. Good thing because they are awesome!!
Just a cute pic of Brian.
Tia Brenda is so good with Brian! He loves to play and snuggle with her.
Brian thoroughly explored Brenda's, even under the dining table.
Brian got so riled up at lunch one day. The video doesn't do the situation justice, but it will still make you laugh.
We spent our last night in MN in Stillwater. I grew up in Stillwater and it's still is a very special place to me. Tia Brenda and Tio Gordon joined Brian and me for the evening. We dined outside with a view of the St. Croix River. It was the perfect way to end my MN trip.
Brian loves his Tio Gordon! From the first time they met, Brian has felt comfortable with his tio. Love at first sight!
Apparently we were surprised or shocked about something.
The river rises every spring because of the snow melting, but due to the heavy rains, the river is taking even longer to get back to normal. This gazebo floods every year! I'm wondering when it will just wash away down the river.
My beautiful son
Of course, what is a trip to Stillwater without going to Nelson's Ice Cream. Sooooo delicious and just a pinch excessive.
Yes, Nelson's is a big deal in Stillwater.
Another wonderful trip home! Unfortunately I didn't get pictures of Brian with his Tia Loretta. I think we were having so much fun that I forgot to get my camera out. I'm including a couple pictures from a previous trip that give you a hint of how much Loretta loves Brian...he's a very lucky baby!
Thank you to my family for taking such good care of Brian and me!! I always look forward to visiting and I always leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Thank you!
