60 Years Young!

Ted and Pat (my brother and sister-in-law) both turned 60 in the last few months, so we had a celebration dinner at Joyce and Paul's in Waconia on Saturday night. We were going to go to the Chanhassen Dinner Theater, but it was sold out for the few dates we all had available. We decided it would be more fun to just get together for some good food and conversation, and we were right. Dinner was great, and so was the company.

Here they are - not bad for 60, huh?

Here's the whole crew - Teddy, Janie, and Joycie and spouses. I spent some time with the direction booklet for my camera on Saturday afternoon so I could figure out how to use the timer and take a picture of all 6 of us - yeah, it worked!

Buggies

We are still blessed with box elder bugs and Asian beetles at our house, and Maddox is fascinated with the little critters. Every time he comes over, he starts looking for "buggies." Unfortunately, he doesn't have to look very hard.
Chuck loves taking him on "buggy hunts."

Look! There's one! See the little black spot on the ceiling?
Another successful visit to Grandma and Grandpa's!
