Fun Times Catching Up!

Our trip to MN has been FULL! I'll try to catch up with pictures when I get back home. We arrived in MN Friday and headed to a picnic that was going on that day. It was a chance to catch up with friends and relatives in the area. They had a game of softball going in the afternoon. That game was an eye opener for Wayne. Each team was going to bat through all their players--from youngest to oldest. He looks around and (oh, no!) realized he was second to last on his team! (He can still run pretty fast--for an old guy!)
Saturday we headed to the Cities to take Marilyn back to her brother's. We visited there a while, then on to see Amanda and Elliott in their new house. From there it was on up to John and Jenny's! That was a fun afternoon. Wayne and John, (along with Warren, Jerry, and Jim) go way back. It was fun to meet Jenny--besides on FB or the blog world. The kids had a good time, too. We weren't too early getting back to the farm that night!
Sunday afternoon we headed back to the Cities for a funeral. Saw lots and lots of familiar faces there. Afterwards we went to Dean and Lois' and caught up with more cousins. Several of our boys are close in age--14 and 15. I think they all had a good time. It has been fun getting acquainted with all the kids!
Yesterday we worked at the house in town some. Today has been a nice relaxing, lazy day! Feels great! Strawberry pies are made and we'll head to Kevin and Candace's later on here.
More updates later!
