Visit from the Masta'

This weekend we had my old roommate, Katie, for the weekend. It was so good to see her again and remiss on good old times. She was so sweet to even bring us gifts from from her employer, good old General Mills. She never ceases to amaze me with her dedication to all the things in her life, from work to church to keeping up with old friends. Seeing her definately reminded me of all the things I have learned from her over the years. The weekend was beautiful here and good to be able to spend some time outdoors. We did a little canoeing with our friends the Ostlers, hit the domes, and played blockus with the girls. It was a good weekend for us, and we are hopeing to get back to the Twin Cities soon now to return the visit. I took tons of flower pics at the domes, if you haven't been you should go at least once I think, especially if you can hit the free milwaukee residents day.

After paddling upstream we took it easy and let the current take us back

Fun!!! Glad you could have a familiar face visit you guys! Looks like you all had a great time. Let me tell you, I am getting more and more excited for the Disneyland trip! The dreams are becoming more frequent and vivid! I cannot believe that its already been almost a year since the last one! I'm having serious withdrawals, both from Disneyland and the Roberts! Hows the new job going?? Is Brad surviving school...finals???
