We had another fun weekend this year with my cousins, their kids, and my aunt and uncle. My cousin Joe and Andrea are moving from Illinois to the cities this JULY!! We are so excited to have them this close to us, but wonder if this yearly rendevous will come to a close since they now live closer to ND! Saturday we went and toured their new house in Blaine, and then hit a public beach to play in the water for a few hours. We stayed in downtown Minneapolis and went out on Saturday night. It's hard to go out and be the only one not drinking.....not that I miss drinking, you just get so tired and bored. Dan had gone home the night before so he came back again for the day. Some people went to the children's museum and the rest of the crew went to the sciece museum to see the "Dead Sea Scrolls". It was interesting although it would have been fun to see a few more "scrolls". We were able to get into the Melting Pot and for most of us it was our first experience. It was so good! It was also so dead all over Minneapolis. We called for reservations a couple of hours before and had a large private room to ourselves. I think everyone completely cleared out to go to the lakes. We came home Sunday night and had a beautiful and hot day to enjoy in the yard doing work and relaxing. It's weird how when I was younger pulling weeds was a chore and now it's something I look forward to. Although, I don't think Dan would agree with lawn mowing, especially now since my chiropractor said I shouldn't be sharing the lawn duty. I need to come up with a chore I can do to relieve Dan of and I'm afraid it's dog poop duty! Here are a few pics of the weekend.
