Sunday, June 18, was Father's Day.
Monday, June 19, would have been my Dad's 71st birthday. Thankfully, my Mom was out of the hospital and up for a trip to Dad's niche with all the kids. We spent some time recounting God's faithfulness and a few of the things we LOVED about Grandpa.
A fun tradition - Grandpa's Stick! Years ago my Dad pulled out this old scrap of wood. He started measuring the kids every time they were in town. When out-of-town grandkids are in MN, then the in-town grandkids also get measured. We are keeping up the tradition.
A lot of swapping of kids happened over our 10 day trip and cousin sleepovers are always a highlight.

The girls made breakfast - french toast.
Tuesday we were able to have dinner over at Eric & Jen's. Later that evening we watched Carsten's soccer game. Our kids cheered him on!
After the game, our kids went home with Aunt Bekah for a sleepover. More memories made!
Also, this guy. He did a lot of projects for my Mom: hung 2 ceiling fans, filled up her water softener pellets, cleaned out the gutters and blew off the roof & porch. He did some projects for his parents. He installed an ice maker and switched around the fridge door for his sister.
Until next time M I N N E S O T A . . .
