The Land of 10,000 Lakes

I'm back from my blogging hiatus!  These past few weeks have been filled with traveling, guests, and lots of fun.  Over Memorial weekend, our family headed to Minnesota to visit Andrew's grandparents and aunt.  Andrew's parents also flew out from California, so it was a family affair.  It's safe to say that Andrew and I took a back seat to Joshua and his cuteness...I'm seeing this to be a trend : )


Here is a picture of Joshua with Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa Grundstrom.  Joshua has the honor of being their first great-grandchild.



Joshua loved story time with Great-Grandma...



Aunt Kathy couldn't get enough of the little guy : )



Grandma babysat for us, so that we could go to a Minnesota Twins game.  One more ballpark down in our quest to visit all of the Major League parks.  We agreed that this is one of the nicest parks we have seen so far.



Thank you for watching our teething boy...

We went to the Mall of America in hopes of Joshua getting to go on his first ride.  We ended up at this mini carousel, and he loved it!  Maybe he'll graduate to the little kid rides by the time we make it back.



All tuckered out from vacation, and ready to go home.  He sure was a trooper, as he cut three teeth while we were in Minnesota.


Another highlight of the trip was spending a few days in Madison, WI.  We were fortunate enough to visit some dear friends of ours who moved away from Albuquerque a year ago to plant a church.  It was fun to be with their family of six again, and to be able to spend Sunday morning worshiping alongside of them at their church.  We love and miss you, Nielsens!

All in all, we had a great time with friends and family.  Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for your hospitality.  We enjoyed introducing you to your first great-grandchild!
