Gardening

The weather finally cooperated for us to plant flowers, Mike's garden, and repair the grass from a long winter. Brooklyn was an excellent assistant and loved playing in the dirt.

Memorial weekend 2013

For the holiday weekend, we headed to Nisswa, MN, to spend the long weekend with Mike's family. We had a wonderful time with Brooklyn in the boat, playing at the playground, and being outside. Brooklyn absolutely loved swinging, and of all things...going potty in the 'bathroom' -- AKA a bucket or a little Johnny -- when we were out on the boat!

A special thanks to Mike's parents for all they did to make the weekend happen. It was a blast.

Girls week

Brooklyn and Mandy spent the week in Florida with Grandma Donna again this year. Uncle Brian was also able to make it for a part of the week. It was such a great time -- we had beautiful weather, plenty of beach time, and thoroughly enjoyed our time together. A special thanks to my Grandma Donna for all she did for us!
