Showers and weekend with the crew

Mike and I had a wonderful weekend. On a spur of the moment decision (based mostly on the forecast) Mike and I thought it would be nice to go down to the cities. So on Friday afternoon we packed up the vehicle with Thiessen in toe and we headed for the DuFrene house! We had a nice, relaxing evening with the DuFrenes and Pati, enjoying wonderful food-tacos and DQ cake.

On Saturday we woke up to a busy day. I, Amy, had a baby shower! It was a wonderful time with friends. College friends, Kali and Megan, were the hostesses; my sister, Tami, made the drive out for it; the "crew" girls, Rachel, Johanna, and Stef, were able to make it; and Nancy (Mike's mom) were all able to join the fun! Below is a picture of that group!

Mike also had a very busy day planned for himself. We are so excited for our friends A.V. and Stefanie as they are preparing for their wedding (Sept. 10). Mike is in the wedding and so came down and got fitted for his tux! Then the boys, A.V., Matt, and Justin (I don't know who else was there for the full event) went and played some softball in the rain! After both groups were done with their "planned" events we all met up to watch the Twins lose in the 11th inning at Joe Sensors for some delicious food!

We both feel so blessed by our friends and constantly are missing them.

Love you all!

Amy (and Mike).
