Friday Night at Target Field

We had tickets for the Cubs vs Twins game on Friday evening.
Great stadium and fun watching but unfortunately the Twins lost.  We had a good time anyway.

How Time Flies When We're Having Fun

Becca has been in town for 3 weeks already and it has been wonderful having her here.  I can't believe she leaves in only one week.  We will all miss her tons.
In the meantime - let's have some fun.

We finally had time to spend a day together on Friday.
Becca picked me up from work at 11 AM and we found a good place to have lunch.
Here's Becca outside the Blue Door Pub in St Paul.

We picked up coffee at a shop nearby and drove to her good friend Megan's to visit and spend quality time with Megan and one-month-old Adelaide.

Loved holding the baby and spending time with Becca and Adelaide's mommy, Megan.

 Nap time for Adelaide
 Sleeping for 45 minutes.  Loved it.
 Waking up and happy




After an afternoon of baby and friend time, we met Bill and Sarah for dinner in Minneapolis.

More Becca Activities

I took last Friday off for Becca-time.   We planned to do some crafty activities but ended up doing errands to send her Visa request.  How many activities does it take to get your Visa?  It was two hours to type up all the forms, a trip to Walgreen's, Becca's bank, my bank and Fed X to get it on it's way. 
It was hectic but I was happy to just be there to keep her company.

We did have some fun Friday too.  We had a late lunch at Applebees at 4 PM.  Later Becca and Bill picked up a Red Box movie for the evening.  If you haven't seen '42' about baseball player, Jackie Robinson, you need to rent it and see it too.   Great story and great movie!

Becca and Sarah had a great weekend going on a long bike ride and meeting with friends.  Becca and I offered to help Sarah clean the refrigerator shelves at her place.  It was a lot of work but worth it.

 Becca had time to shop on Tuesday and modeled her new outfit for us.



Cute outfit and cute daughter who is having lots of fun during her visit here in the United States.

Becca is Back for a Month

Becca returned to Minnesota on Monday, September 9th.  She left Indonesia on Sunday morning and arrived in Minneapolis on Monday evening.  Sarah picked her up at the airport and delivered her to Savage for her stay.  We took Becca to dinner at Theresa's for great Mexican food and drinks.
