Life seems to have gotten a little busy these last couple of weeks! We've had several birthdays including Sal, Mike, Vicky, and Chris' Grandma's party down in Mankato. What fun we've had celebrating these important days! Here's just a few pictures of our day in Mankato. The precious little one is the newest member of the Michel's family. He is so very beutiful and just a week old! Quite a gathering for someone so new! I'm sure it's the first Michel's party of many for him!

We also (well mostly Chris) helped Mike and Ann move a piano that Ann had given to her by a gal she met at work! Guess her job at Kemp's is better than even the ice cream bonuses! She's going to LOVE having her own piano to practice on and play! I'm glad we could be a small part of her blessing. I at least held the door. :)

Ohhh....Chris and I were a bit adventurous tonight. We tried a new Vietnamese restaraunt in Fridley. Who knew that such a great place was so close! We were seriously the ONLY customers but the food was amazing! Outside the door was a sign that boasted that they had the best eggrolls in the Twin Cities. It made us chuckle as we went in, but they were reallllly good! We can't wait to take others there to try it. Any takers?

ok, off to bed. I'll try to post sooner next time!
Blessings to you.

Weekday Surprises!!!

What a wonderful husband I have! Chris surprised me at work last week with these GORGEOUS roses! It had been a pretty crummy week and an especially crummy day. I was standing in the hallway chatting after an interview when the receptionist found me to tell me I was needed at the front desk and it was very important. Well, at work, everyone thinks EVERYTHING is important so I went to the front desk. Who knew it was Chris with such a pretty surprise! My desk was a lot more fun to be at for the next two days and now my kitchen table is that much prettier as well.

Nice work Barb and Vicky for teaching him so well!

I am so blessed!

Weekend at the Cabin

Sorry for the lack of posts in the last couple of weeks! It seems that summer is off to a running start! How can we possibly be THIS busy! We finally have a weekend at home to get some projects completed and our house clean again. Tigo has a way of getting the floors awfully dirty, awfully fast! Thank goodness for the shop vac!

Last weekend we had a great weekend at Chris' parent's cabin! What a great blessing to be able to go and relax, get some sun, and enjoy Barb's weekend cooking!

Here are some pictures of our fun!

Iris garden fun!!!

What a fun day! We spent the day at the Anderson Iris Gardens with Vicky and Chris' mom Barb. They were in peak bloom so everything was gorgeous. Just thought I'd post some pictures so you can see just how pretty everything was! Little note... the first picture I ever saw of Chris before we met was of him grinning amongst the flowers at this garden. There are about 3-4 acres of iris with some peony's and day lilly's as well. If you ever get a chance to go, it's amazing!

Chris wanted me to add that it's FREE!!!

Enjoy!

Little Changes

Happy Saturday to you!
