We left the zoo a little nuts!

Hey everyone! The girls and I thought this would be a fun way to keep everyone updated on us. We are doing the best we can with the situation. We have been busy with friends, swimming, daycare, Onamia Days and everyday stuff. I made my first drive by MYSELF on Saturday. The girls and I went to the Minnesota Zoo. I made it down there without getting turned around, on the way back I forgot to take an exit, but was able to make it right back on with no problem. Yea for me!! I have never driven farther than Maple Grove by myself, so this was a HUGE accomplishment for me. We had a great day! The weather was good, the snowcones were good too.:) We were able to see the new Russias Grizzly exhibit. That was amazing. (It was quite the attraction site for people too) We also took in an IMAX movie - Kung Fu Panda. That was good. The girls seemed to really enjoy the "really big" screen. We left exhausted from all the walking, but had to keep going as there was shopping to get done. We got home about 9 that night and practically crashed right away.

This weekend in Onamia Days 100th year Celebration. Of course I am busy with the events. I am in charge of Little Miss Onamia this year. I also will work the Lipski/Olson Caring Community Foundations booth where we will be selling our cookbooks. I also will work at the concession stand at the Demo Derby and then the pancake breakfast on Sunday and finally do the float for Little Miss on Sundays Parade. I guess I shouldn't complain - it keeps me busy.

Take Care everyone!

Hey Ang! Girl -- you are one busy chica bonita!! I'm glad to see that you and the girls are hanging in there. I think about you often and you are all in my prayers.

Well...you've made it to/from the MN Zoo, so I know that you can make it to my house! If you are ever feeling adventurous again and need to get away, you are always welcome. After the first week of July, I'll be in Northfield during the week (starting my new job on the 10th of July), so if you need to get away during the week you'll have to come see me there! (I'd love the company!!)

I think setting this blog up is a great thing!! I'm so glad that you did it. I'm not very good at the whole phone thing...not much better with the computer, but at least it's better than the phone. :-)

Miss you Ang. No matter what though...I'll always be here for you. May God give you strength and keep you safe.

Hey there -- It's Pam.

Sorry about that -- I just realized I used my nickname for my identity and you probably don't know it!

Hi Angie, Kelsie and Kasidie--What a cute picture! It sounds like a very fun day. Angie, I'm not a brave driver either, so I'm really proud of you!

Girls, I have some cute recital pics on order which I'll send to you soon. We are going to start piano in the fall with a YOYO party, which I'll tell you about later this summer. It will be fun!!

Hope to see you during Onamia Days!
Love you all!
