White Bear Lake

Tonight we went to a birthday party at our friend James house. He lives on White Bear Lake. There was a beautiful sunset. We had a lot of fun and we were even able to take a boat ride and check out all the beautiful houses around the lake.

Minneapolis Sculpture Gardens

Last week we went to the sculpture gardens with some friends. Here is Thaddeus and me by the famous cherry in the spoon.The four girls being crazy on a moving sculpture. Catie pretending like she is in an Abercrombie and Fitch ad.

Twins

Last night John, Catie, Thaddeus and I went to the Twins game. John works at Leonard Street and Deinard (law firm), and he got free tickets through them. They were great seats and right along the first baseline. We had tons of fly balls come our way. It was a lot of fun even thought we lost. Before the game, I spun a wheel at a radio station booth and won four tickets to Friday’s game against the Angels. We already have something to go to so it is a bummer we can’t go. It would have been nice to see the Angels.

Iced Coffee

Have you guys tried the new iced coffee from McDonald's? Let me just tell you to check it out. It is delicious and way cheaper than Starbucks. You pay less than 2 bucks for this huge cup.

Figure Eight Races

My parents were in Iowa visiting my grandparents a few weeks ago so we went down to say hi to everyone. While we were there we went golfing of course and also we went to a figure eight race. I had been to them before but this was Thaddeus's first time. He was not that excited to go but loved it after we left. I have to tell you if you ever get a chance to go it is a lot of fun. It is busted up old cars redone and then they race on a track the shape of an eight. At the point where it crosses one way has the right of way and the other doesn't. Well some people dont want to wait, since its a race and all, so they try to make it across and don't. It is very suspensful and fun and they wreck all the time. Please go if you get a chance, it is great.

July 4th

Some of our friends came over for a July4th Bbq. Our friends Nate and Kim and their 5 girls came. They were a lot of fun. Since no one really cares to see the adults I will share photos of the girls. This is Grace on the left and Olivia on the right. This is Emma. She was bumping the volleyball. She was really good at it.
These are the twins. They are six months old today. Evelyn on the left and Sophie on the right.

Here is another pic of Sophie.
And another pic of Olivia. She had been running around outside if you can't tell by the super red cheeks.

Sanali

My nephew Ethan and my new niece Sanali. Aren't they such cuties?
