Friday began our whirlwind weekend. My cousin Katrina had her graduation party in Green Bay, so Vickie, Kelsey and I left after school on Friday. Matt was unable to go with us because he had playoffs for baseball. Vickie was thoughtful enough to come along so that Kelsey had someone to keep her busy on the drive and keep me awake. I have not had to drive to GB since Matt and I have been married because he usually does the driving. We are very thankful she was so willing to help. Kelsey slept almost the entire way there, but was awake most of the way home. Saturday morning my friend Amber came over to my Dad and Chris's house to visit. It is always good to see her and catch up. Next, we left for GB and celebrated with Katrina. She has always been so special to me, almost like a little sister. I am so proud of all of her accomplishments. She will be heading to Eau Claire next to follow in her cousin's footsteps. Woot-woot! Congratulations, Katrina! Vickie and I left for Owatonna around 4pm on Saturday and arrived home by 9:00. It was a very quick 28 hours, but well worth it.
On Sunday we started off with church and our first graduation party of many. In the afternoon, we had Matt's family over to celebrate my master's graduation and Connor's preschool graduation. We played kickball, Polish golf, washers, grilled out, watched the Twins, and spent time just being together. Plus, the ice cream truck even drove by, and everyone knows I cannot resist ice cream! What a fun day! To top it off, Nate and Diane stayed over and we watched the movie Seven Pounds. Good flick! ( The parts I was awake for. hehe)
Today we went to the parade in town and then to Matt's baseball game. They won, so now they head to Red Wing next weekend for final four. Go Huskies! After the game, we went hung out with team and the players and Kelsey went swimming. We have one last dinner with friends tonight. What a wonderful weekend. Happy Memorial Day!
