Visit with Aunt Bethany

It was so fun to have Aunt Bethany here for a visit! We crammed a lot into our week together, and we were sad to see her go back to Texas, although she was probably ready to get out of here and away from our craziness!

Aunt Bethany was the main reason I was able to pull off the big barbecue we had for Callan's birthday. I don't know how I would have done it without her help! She helped make the dino cookies, the cupcakes, and she ran the kids' activities during the party. She also took all three boys to Lake Harriet to play on the morning of the party so I could get some work done alone.  THANK YOU SIS!

It wasn't all work while she was here, though. In addition to our trip to the Renaissance Festival, we also went paddle boating on Centennial Lakes, got mani/pedi's, SHOPPED!!, and even got out by ourselves to see a scary movie. We hope Aunt Bethany will come back again soon, and we wish her lots of luck as she begins her newest journey as a college freshman!
