Grandma Stott comes to visit...oh happy day!

Grandma Stott came to visit on June 7th. and was able to say for a week. On Friday Doug took the day off from work so we could spend the day together without KIDS. (I love my kids, but a whole day without them was a lot of fun!)

First we went over to Stillwater and went on a lunch cruise. The paddle boat went down the St. Croix River. The food was great and and the scenery was BEAUTIFUL.

The paddle boat we went on.

In the afternoon we went shopping and then headed to Minneapolis.

Next we had to do something Doug loves...Twins game. He has taken Jacob and Andrew and now it was my turn. I know Doug would have loved to have the $10 hot dog, but I talked him into the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner that was outside the stadium.

The Twins played the Braves and it was a great game. Doug wasn't sure who to cheer for sometimes because he has always been a Braves fan. We had to cheer for Chipper Jones on the Braves, but we cheered for the Twins the rest of the game.

This is the new Taget Stadum. We went to the very top to see the WHOLE stadium. I still can't believe in Minnesota we have an outdoor stadium. Who ever came up with that idea must not be from here.

The rest of the week with Mom was wonderful. She was able to see Andrew and Jacob play 2 soccer games.

We also went to the zoo. It was suppose to rain on this day so we got up early and made it through the whole zoo. On the drive home, then it started to rain. We were pretty lucky since it rained almost every day she was here. I think sometimes she thought she had gone to visit Karen in Oregon.

We also, had a great time swimming at the pool, and playing at the Shoots and Ladders Park. I was very grateful for my Mom to come and help me clean my windows, mop my floor, trim my hair, and play with the boys while I got some other things done.

Thanks Mom for a great visit!
