California Visitors

We opened the Bracken B&B last weekend, as we had overnight company both Friday and Saturday nights. Chuck had his poker buddies down on Friday night, and since Andy played with the guys, he and Jenna decided to check out the queen-size bed in her old room, and then Sue and Lee were here from California on Saturday night. They came for a family wedding in Northfield, so they rambled over to CF for a visit after the dinner and dance. Sue was maid of honor in our wedding (almost 35 years ago - yikes!), and they are Kyle's godparents. We've been friends since first grade, so we always have LOTS to talk about when we get together.
They stayed for brunch on Sunday, and then we just relaxed and got caught up on everything all afternoon.

Sunday night, Sue and I went up to Minneapolis to meet Linda, a college friend, for dinner and more chatting. The three of us were skiing buddies in college, and we took lots of trips to northern Minnesota, Upper Michigan, and Colorado with the Augsburg Ski Club - those were the days!

Corey brought Maddox down to meet and entertain the California visitors. He was pretty shy at first, but that didn't last too long.

He showed off his bike-riding skills. His legs just need to grow a few inches more and he'll be able to handle those pedals.

Pushing the stroller was much easier!

What a busy weekend. I felt like I needed to go back to school on Monday to rest up.
