Sorry that it has been a while since we have blogged but we’ve been gone for a few days. Tuesday (August 31st ) we left home at 9:30am and drove to Anoka Minnesota where we were able to spend some time with our uncle Danny and aunt Joyce. Tuesday evening we went to my cousin Mandy's house and had fun with herfamily.
Wednesday we went to the Minnesota state fair and spent the day walking around and looking at things. There were sooooo many people everywhere! Then on Wednesday evening we went to the Fair’s high school rodeo and it was really good.
Thursday we woke up early and we toured a plastic factory, then in the afternoon we headed to down town Minneapolis and went to the mall of America for a little while. From there we went down to the old spaghetti factory and had supper. After supper we just headed up the street to the Metrdome were we where able to watch the Minnesota Vikings play the Denver Broncos in their second preseason game! The score was (Vikings 31 Broncos 24.) From the game we drove ‘til about 1:00am and then spent the night in Albert Lea, Minnesota.
Friday morning we got up early and drove to Clarion, Iowa where we toured the Hagie factory, (for those of you how don't know what Hagie is, it's the company that made our big self propelled sprayer) the people were so nice and we had a great time! From Clarion we drove a good part of the day till we got to Kansas City, Missouri. All of mom's family was in Kansas City for Seth's wedding so we had a nice Friday night with them.
Saturday we went to church and then all our family got together and had dinner in the park. On Saturday evening Seth's bride, Joana, invited all Seth’s family to there house and her dad made us a yummy Mexican supper.
Sunday morning Brooki (my cousin) Tabby, Mindy, Janae, Paul, and myself went swimming in a very cold outdoor pool! Then at 4:00pm we went to Seth and Joana’s wedding. They had a beautiful wedding and a nice reception. We wish you the best Seth and Joana. When we left the wedding we drove ‘til 3:30am and reached my cousin Michele's house near Kimble, South Dakota.
We had a short night but on Monday morning we got to help Gunner celebrate his first Birthday! After the Birthday party we drove the rest of the way home.
Thank you to all those who gave us a place to stay and provided us with a good time! God blessed us with safe travels and protection and a wonderful time.
