Minnesota Fun!






Today, several of my mom's side of the family got to meet EJ for the first time. My cousin, Chalayne, along with her daughter (Ally) and her niece (Leah) took us to the Como Zoo in St. Paul. It was a great zoo and beautiful garden. You can see a picture of us in one of the gardens at the zoo. It was a beautiful day and the kids really liked the animals. This was EJ's first zoo experience and while I don't think he gets it yet he did have fun watching all the people watch the animals.

Tonight we had a BBQ at Chalayne's house with my some of my aunts and cousins and their families. EJ got to meet his great-aunt Judy (pictured bottom left) and his great aunt-Marian (bottom right). He took a liking to both of them! Maybe it's because they look so much like Grandma Bobbie!! The other picture is of EJ and Ally along with my cousin Rob's daughter. She loved EJ and played with him for several hours which allowed me to catch up with everyone. Eric had to recruit all day but he was able to stop by the BBQ for a little while. It was a fun day in Minnesota! A big thanks to Chalayne and Dirk for hosting the BBQ!!!
