Where Did the Weekend Go?

We've had a busy and fun weekend, but can't believe how quickly it went by. We started Saturday with swim lessons before heading out to Afton for William's 1st birthday party. It was a bit of a drive, but it was very scenic and well timed. Keira took her first nap all the way there. What a beautiful day and location for a birthday party!

Keira enjoyed exploring the yard with Mark before grabbing a bite to eat - yummy cheese!

There's the birthday boy, William, enjoying the pool - he's so relaxed in the water! Happy 1st Birthday!!

After Will's birthday, we went straight to Renee and Scott's baby shower in Minneapolis. It was so great and laid back - a barbecue, beer and fun company. We enjoyed a nice late lunch, met some new people and chased Keira all over the yard and into the alley in the back. She had a terrific time. Congrats Renee and Scott - we can't wait until Taco makes his/her appearance in September!!

Here's the mama-to-be, Renee. She's had a great pregnancy and looks great too despite the warm weather.

Here's Mark after he chased Keira down in the alley and dragged her back. She's such a funny kid.

Later that evening we hosted some of our family for dinner and a mean game of croquet before the boys headed off to Leprechaun Days in downtown Rosemount - whoo hoo! The fireworks were terrific and everyone had a great time. Needless to say, Saturday was a very busy day.

After the busy Saturday, we were thankful for a low-key Sunday. We spent it playing with Keira, doing laundry and running a couple of errands, but nothing too taxing. I just wish we had one more day before starting the work week. Ho hum.

We hope you all had a terrific weekend and remember to enjoy the rest of the summer! Before we know it, the leaves will be changing colors again.
