This spring break, since we live on the beaches that most people flock to for the week, we opted for a trip Up North, where we could spend Easter weekend with family. It was amazing to see the Minnesota nieces and nephews. Willa was especially fond on Tom and held his hand whenever she got the chance-- especially on the backyard adventure that was a Grandpa-led trip down the railroad tracks, and to the lake!
The tire swing is still a big hit-- it felt so good to be outside in the Minnesota spring time!
We also played a little 500, where you catch a ball for points and the first one to get to 500 wins. Tom and Matt remembered a more physical version of this game from their childhood, but it was pretty low-tackle since kids were involved. And oh, this picture makes me renew my vow to get in better shape before the summer! :)It was also a treat to be able to catch up with our parents, both my mom and dad, and Jerry and Mary. We got some down time to just sit around the kitchen table and chat. Jerry grilled a turkey breast, which was amazingly good! My dad got to show off his latest batch of home brew, which was very yummy! Thank you to all the family members for taking us in and letting us borrow a car to get around the city.
