Marty's in "The Town" & Baby Noah

Marty came into town Friday night. The three of us went to see "The Town."

Saturday, September 18, 2010

While I was at the hospital visiting my Dad all day, Marty went with Wayne to work. They then went to Ridgedale because JJ Hardy (MN Twins) was there signing autographs. Of course Wayne had to go.

I went home after the hospital and the boys went to Babe's in Lakeville for Wayne's first night there. It's his new Saturday night gig for KDWB.

Sunday, September 19, 2010

I stayed at home while the boys went to the Twins game. Marty had tickets from his work. It was Media day. Later in the afternoon they met me at the hospital in Monticello. Our friend Jeannine had her little baby boy, Noah, on that Friday, so we had to go visit.

Us with Noah, only 2 days old. I can't wait until it's our turn!!

Crazy Days {2010}

Tuesday, July 27, 2010

Read post

I feel like the title to this post is what my life has been like the last couple of weeks. A lot of ups and downs. I will elaborate on that more in another post.

But this post is a happy one. Crazy Days is actually in downtown Buffalo. It's in mid-July and totally different than Buffalo Days that happens at the end of June. It's kind of like a sidewalk sale. One of the streets downtown is closed off and all the shops bring their stuff out on the road or sidewalk. If they aren't out on the road or sidewalk, they usually still have some sort of sale. It's fun perusing because everyone has great sales, along with bake sales and junk food.

This year, Kally and Drew, were visiting us for the weekend. They live in Florida with their Mom, Kari, who is Wayne's 2nd cousin (His mom's 1st cousin). They have been up here a couple of months visiting during summer vacation and so we had them spend the weekend with us.

Friday, July 16, 2010

I picked them up Friday evening after work. We had KFC for dinner, went to Walmart and Target to look at new TV's for our bedroom and then I made a large cookie with ice cream that Kally I tackled! I was pretty tired and so we went to bed around 11pm.

Saturday, July 17, 2010

I had to work at the gym that morning from 9-12. Kally came with me. It was super slow, so we ended up only being there from 9-11. We then went home and Drew was still sleeping. He didn't go to work with Wayne. Wayne said he couldn't wake him up. That's a teenage boy for ya.

Shortly after we got home, we decided to head downtown to Crazy days. Green Grandma came with. We walked around and looked at clothes, jewelry and other knick knacks. We had lunch at BJ's Deli. I had a turkey sandwich that was AWESOME! Kally and I shared this Heath Bar cake for desert:

After a few hours downtown and visiting Barbara in the nursing home, we went home. There were a couple different storms that hit our area that evening/night which caused us all to head downstairs (2 different times). It was crazy with all of us downstairs (Green Grandma, Sandy, Wayne, Me, Drew & Kally) with the (10) dogs watching the storm pass us by.

We ended up watching Hot Tub Time Machine (which I thought was just OK) and then we headed to bed as once again I was super tired. I know I am lame and go to bed super early.

After a yummy brunch of swedish pancakes and sausage, we went for a boat ride, played video games, watched tv movies, ordered pizza and just hung out until it was time for them to leave. That's always a sad time now that they live in Florida, we don't see them very often. I'm hoping to see them at least one more time before they go back to Florida on August 5th.

She had just woken up from a nap. LOL. I love you Kally and Drew!!

Twilight Saga: Eclipse

My cousin Nicole and I, as well as my sister, Amie, her friend, Madison, and my other friend Jess went to the Eclipse premier at the Mall of America last night. We also saw my friends Teri and Nikki. We always get there super early to start the line. Yesterday we got there a little before 5pm. The movie didn't start until 7:30. Do you think we're just a little crazy? It was yet again another great movie in the Twilight Sequel. My favorite so far!

Can't wait for Breaking Dawn! Any other fellow twilighters out there?

Birthday Opener

So my 27th birthday was April 9th and do I feel old. I can now say I am in my late 20's which is totally depressing. I decided to drown my sorrows in some alcohol and go see Hylander. They happened to be playing on my birthday, which I took as a sign that I should go.

There were several other peeps that came out, Shane, Deanna, Jenny and Joni. Thanks guys. Happy Birthday to me!

Saturday, April 10th Wayne took me to dinner at Mongos (so yummy) and we went to see Up in The Air at the cheap theater in Maple Grove. I got to pick what we saw and even though Wayne wasn't all for it, he suffered through it like a champ. It was an ok movie, I thought it was going to be a lot better.

Monday, April 12th was the Twins Home Opener. We didn't sit in our season ticket seats, which was ok, but from what I have heard our seats are awesome! Looking forward to the games this summer.

That will definitely be my most visited food stand.

That's my birthday weekend and although I don't like getting older, it was a great weekend celebration.

Thursday, April 1st, which was also Maundy Thursday, my sister, Kate, had her first communion.

Leah & Kate in church before the service.

All 4 of us, Leah, Kate (10 years), Amie (she was 12 in this picture, but she is now 13) and Ross (18 years in this picture, but he is now 19):

Friday, April 2nd was Green Gramma's 70th birthday. We celebrated with family and a greek dinner. It sure was a "Good Friday."

Saturday, April 3rd I woke up and drove to the airport to pick up Green Gramma's best friend, Shirley, from high school. Gramma had no idea she was flying in from Idaho.

[Shirley, Green Grandma and Karen]

After picking Shirley up, we went to the Original Broadway Pizza in Minneapolis for Sharon's surprise 70th Birthday Party. Since the family started the restaurant it has a lot of memories.

[Eddie Peck aka Uncle Oddie was the founder of Broadway Pizza]

See the mural covering the wall on the left? It's still there after all these years.

Sunday, April 4th, which was not only Easter, but Amie's 13th birthday.

The 4 of us again on Amie's birthday after she opened gifts.

The girls, meaning Mom, me, Amie and Kate celebrated just the 4 of us and went to see:

After Amie's birthday celebration I then went over to The Horton's and finished the day with Wayne's family. Shirley, Dana and the boys left early Monday morning. The first weekend of April was busy, but a happy one. I was so happy that Gramma's party was a success and that so many of her friends and our family could make it. The next weekend was my birthday. Stay tuned for my 27th Birthday post.
