My ex sister-in-law Linda from Arizona and I had lunch at Anthony's on the wharf in San Diego. She had been on a cruise and had a little time before leaving for home so was great to see her!

On September 19, 2007, Lauryn and I took another Minnesota trip. I took her in June and she thought Minnesota was great so being the great traveling buddies that we are, we were off again. The reason for the trip was my brother John's 2nd oldest childs (not exactly a child, a beautiful young woman!) wedding. Being we saw all the family at the wedding, we didnt go up to Johnson. Of course we hit the Mall of America to do a little shopping and before we knew it, it was Sunday and time to go home.

Lauryn calling Mom before we got on the plane.

We flew on Sun Country which was great..even fed us more than a bag of nuts!!

We had lunch with Lauryn's great Aunt and Uncle Dan and Bev Farley in Litchfield, MN

we went to visit Dad at the nursing home in Glenwood. I don't know if he knew who we were but we were glad we were there.

we were invited t0 the wedding rehearsal and to the grooms dinner after. This is at Shanna and Ken's home in Willmar.

Lauryn was excited to be able to watch over some of the little ones at the grooms dinner. This is Stacey's ( Jim and Mary's daughter) son.

My brother John and his two sons, Dustin and Jeremy.
