Friday July 1, 2016

It's a holiday weekend and Dan and I are currently working from a Caribou Coffee shop in Grand Rapids, MN. Today is a good day to have a job you can do from anywhere...

Erin and her friend Lexie are off at volleyball camp at the University of MN - Duluth. 48 hours on campus, and about half of the time is spent on the volleyball court... should be a fun experience for them and maybe even improve their volleyball skills...

Dan and I dropped them off in Duluth and made the trek over to Grand Rapids to visit my family on Pokegama Lake. Always good to catch up with Jeff, Mary Jane and their crew. They are salt of the earth kind of people... and, Jeff can tell a story with the best of them! Lots of laughs last night...


My cousins Nathan and Ryan and Ryan's family came over for dinner. Ryan and his wife have three boys under 5... highly entertaining! Fun to watch Deyton and Wiley play on the beach and drive the kid-sized gator around the yard. And, I got some time holding baby Tate...nice...

Today we will head back to Duluth to hook up with Lexie's parents Shaun and Kerri for a day on Canal Park. Then Saturday we get to watch Erin at the end of camp tournament before we head home for the rest of the holiday.

Life is good. Happy 4th of July, Everyone!
