Kendall's 30th Birthday Brunch
Bob!
Kendall, Darci, Annie and me
Little Chunker with Grandpa Rick
Jack was the most amazing traveler! He slept through all flights and did especially well when we had to land in Amarillo, Texas to gas up because we couldn't land in Denver. Unfortunately, when he's old enough we'll have to tell him that the first city/town he ever traveled to was Amarillo. He also did especially well adjusting to two different time zones. We had a great time visiting in Denver. I got together with some friends from high school. We ended up sitting out on the D's deck until almost 1 in the morning. I bet the neighbors loved that. Bob's wedding was a major party...as I knew it would be. I knew the night would get a little rough when, for old time's sake, I had to take a shot of whiskey with my ol' drinkin' buddy. But, the funniest part (and I know this sounds mean) was when Mahlon McDuff accidentally punched a fellow wedding guest in the face while trying to get out to the dance floor. Glad it wasn't me! Oh, oh...and for those of you who watch as much T.V. as I do--you'll appreciate this. Holly from MTV's Road Rules Mexico (I think) the one with MAJOR eating disorder and running addiction was sitting at our table at the wedding. She was a major piece of work! I had a field day just watching her stew in her ego. But, of course, I couldn't admit that I recognized her because then I would be the lame-o! We also got to celebrate Kendall's 30th birthday! LoAnn put on a superb Sunday brunch in her beautiful back yard and recreated the meal from my bridal lunch that she had hosted almost four years ago. It was delish!

Minneapolis was great, but jeez is it humid out there! Jack got to meet his only living Great Grandparent, Ila Mae. She enjoyed showing him off at her retirement community.My cousin Amy graciously hosted all of us for dinner on Monday night. As per usual, I ate too much! She's a great chef! We got to spend time with Lynn and Mark and Keaghan. Keaghan had a magical affect on Jack...he could make him smile and calm down. It was so cute to see the cousins together. I got to see some of my dearest buddies from Fergus Falls...I hadn't seen them since I surprised them at their high school graduation in 1996. We're working on getting them out here next summer.
All in all, it was great to take a trip this summer but I certainly am happy to be back home again! Before you know it, school will be starting...
