We had a good time with my two sisters and their families. They arrived Saturday around noon....the men before the women!
After we ate lunch Stacy, Shannon and I went to a huge craft sale back in our old home town....Blaine. When we got back we played a game of Nertz....a very fun games, but nerve raking. Most the way through Eric and I were winning, but Jeff and Stacy surpassed us.
Then for supper we went to Burger King and the kids ran some energy off playing in the jungle gym. We had a lot of laughs and teasing going on.
We are looking forward to our time the end of the month when we go to Rochester. It should be a crazy time with all of us....
Today, Sunday we went to church, then to the mall for a little shopping, out for lunch at TGI Fridays and then to the craft sale again. Today, we spent more than I did on Saturday. Got a lot of ideas that we are going to try out ourselves.
When we got home we watched the movie "Homeward Bond". Maria loved it, asked a lot of why's, and got a little sad at points. It was fun to see her expressions....happy, sad, worried and excited.

Can't wait to see yous on the 29th.The kids will have their own sleeping bags and pillows to sleep with on the floor. They love to camp out on the floor.

Sounds like you had a good weekend and feel I missed out but looking forward to our time together the 31st.
We, also, had fun Chistina, Vicotria and I went shopping at the mall of america for a little bit. Meet the guys at the fairgrounds to pick up the boys. We took the children to the science museum, omni theater to see Wholves and then the 3D movie on The Web Of Life. We left at 9 p.m. for home so we had a big day.
Sunday, Christina and I took dinner along with our little family and went to Jonette's we had a good visit and left for home at 4 p.m.

Jonette is Bill's aunt? Where is she now? She seem to have health problems? How is she doing? It must be lonely for her with both of folks gone. Always nice when the friends and family can go and spend some time with them when they're all by themselves. I see it so often where no ones comes around to see them. It gets pretty boring for them. Where I work they just love it when I work to spend sometime with them-just to ask questions as to how things are.

I know Grandma just loves it when we come. Wish we would do it more often. She does say that our phone calls and letters help hold her over until we can come to see her.

Yes, Jonette is Bill's Aunt and the friends are very good in the cities. Someone is always coming to get her and taking her out for the day. It is hard to get a hold of her because she isn't there, which makes it easier for us knowing she has something to do. The family, also, tries hard to spend as much time with her.

Ryan I think I could get you a copy of Half Life. That is the version of the game that you don't play on the Internet. You and Alex were playing that in the beginning.
Let me know. I'll make you a copy of mine for this weekend. And let your dad know that I haven't been able to find his game yet.
