On May 25th I flew up to Minnesota for a quick visit with my family. It had been about a year since the last time Phil and I were there. Unfortunately this time I had to leave my Sweets at home! (This was the first time we had been apart for any length of time, but somehow we survived!) I flew into Minneapolis a little after 11 PM and was so excited to see my Dad and Ryan. That night I spent the night at Dad and Kathy’s house. Kathy prepared a delicious brunch for Ryan, Erin, and me. It was great to be able to catch up with them.

Tonight Valerie and her fiancé, Jon, had us over to for a cookout. We (Jon actually) grilled turkey dogs, brats, cheeseburgers, pineapple, zucchini, and squash. Valerie also made a delicious pineapple and watermelon salad, and we also enjoyed some Sun Chips (cheddar flavor). To finish off the grand meal, Valerie had also made a strawberry pie, which was also VERY tasty!!

We spent Christmas this year in Findlay, Ohio with Phil’s family. We hadn’t been to Ohio since Thanksgiving of 2005, and the whole family hadn’t been together since Christmas of 2004! It was nice to have everyone together, and Mom was finally able to get the family picture she’s been wanting! We posted some pictures from our trip, so feel free to check them out.
