Nana's New Wheel Chair

My aunt and uncle's neighbor borrowed my mom an electric wheelchair to use around her assisted living.  It makes it easier for her to still be independent.  The kids love it too as they get to ride on it with Nana.



It was so nice out we headed to the park for some fresh air and sunshine!

Gavin's First Fieldtrip - Como Zoo

Gavin's 3 year old Preschool class from Zion headed to Como Zoo for their end of the year field trip.  We had so much fun riding on the big school bus and seeing all the animals at the zoo.
Gavin's first time on a school bus!










Gavin's Class at the zoo!


Gavin was pretty tired after a long day at the zoo!

Sleeping!  My arm got pretty tired.

After the field trip we headed to Ruby's Roost for a treat and ran into Police Office Hodge and his new police car.

MOPS Fundraiser - Antique Photos

I joined a MOPS group last fall and one of their fundraisers you can bring your kids for some cool professional photos.  They provide the outfits and props.  Gavin and Kaitlyn loved the session and were sad when it was over!  After the session you signed up for time to come back a few weeks later to review and purchase the photos.  They used a photographer from out of town, so if you didn't review and pick-up that day the opportunity to purchase was over.  Now fast forward to the night of our appointment to review and pick-up....  My team had recently moved to their new office location in Downtown Minneapolis.  This new commute is almost 40 miles one way with downtown traffic.  Of course it is construction season and every road has some form of road work.  I left downtown at 4:30 and didn't get home until 7:00 missing my MOPs group.  Because of all the chaos I also missed my ONLY time to review and buy the pictures from the Antique photo session.  Realizing this error I tried to find someone to tell the photographer to wait so I could quick drive to Waconia to review.  The photographer is from out of state and was leaving to go back home that night.  So, at 9:30 at night I grabbed my sleeping kids (Nate was at fire training) and threw them in the car and rushed to Waconia. Gavin slept the whole time and didn't even realize we had left the house.  I am so glad I did because I bought all the pictures!!!
