Well, the first week of vacation is done (& then some!). A little recap and highlights of the week (note...I won't be able to include anywhere close to everything that has happened, but will touch on the big events).....
Saturday we got to Tim & Kendra's house and enjoyed getting OUT of the car!! We decided to just spend the rest of the night at their house to avoid getting back in the car. Sunday we went to the outlets at Albertville and then a late lunch at the Alien's restaurant. The kids like the fun atmosphere of the restaurant...and sure were hungry at 1:30pm! :) Then it was finally time for naps!! We left there around 6pm to drive down to Rochester.

Finally we didn't have to drive again for a few days. Sunday night to Wednesday morning we stayed in Rochester at Kris and Eric's. The kids LOVED it!! I worked a little during the day on Monday and Tuesday while staying at the house with Kris to help with all four kids! Hailey was in love with her "cousin Hanna." She wanted to hold Hanna every minute she could and loved bragging that she put Hanna to sleep! Ryan enjoyed playing w

ith CJ on Tuesday when he stayed home! They played ring-around-the-rosie and that was SO CUTE! :) Monday night, we all went to Kristi & Skye's house for a big picnic. It is amazing how time has changed...it used to be the 4 girls (Kristi, Kris, Gina, and I)...but now it is 4 old ladies, 4 husbands, and 8 (almost 9) kids!! YIKES!! It was a SUPER FUN night...for everyone!

Wednesday we drove up to the lake (the kids and I....Chris had a golfing trip to go to). The kids loved getting up there, seeing the

water, and of course the golf cart rides! Thursday we went to Fargo to meet Becky, Brad, Allison and Sarah (Emily was already with us) and go to Gerald and Connie's house for Gerald's retirement party. Friday and Saturday we spent TONS of time playing outside!!! Friday night the kids really enjoyed going to the

parade in New York Mills with Tyler and Kylie as well. Finally Saturday was nice enough for a BOAT RIDE!! Ryan was so happy to finally get this in! He immediately asked for "more boat ride", but it was nap time! :) Saturday night they all got to play on the beach and in the water (& go fishing too!) at Judy & Bob's place. Sunday of course was beautiful outside...so we all went on another boat ride and then stopped at Zorbaz for pizza then back on the boat to go back to Grandma & Papa's house! That was fun!! We then got back in the car....

Got to TKO around 4:00, ate supper, and then made a DQ run! :) Around 6pm, Chris and I left to go to Rochester (darn work!!) and the kids will stay at TKO with Grandma Pilcher until we are done working on Wednesday. We miss them already!!
More updates to come next week...
