MN Week 5

Wed - my parents were gone and we didn't have a car so the kids and I played outside/played games all day, that night we watched Star Wars Episode III with Papa (our goal is to work our way through all 7 movies this summer!)

Thurs - Gaga, Rylee, Jace and I went garage saling in Brainerd (Jace loves it now too), then worked our way up to Crosslake for dinner: Rafferty's pizza!

Fri - baking in preparation for my aunt's funeral, visit with Penney, the kids played in the sprinkler, Star Wars Episode IV

Sat - we all attended my aunt's funeral
Pat was my dance instructor for most of my life and she was able to teach Rylee these past several years.  I am so thankful that Rylee got to know her.  She was taken from us too soon.  Her funeral was beautiful and such a perfect reflection of the life she lived - lots of singing and dancing!

Sun - lazy day: 4 wheel races and obstacle courses, board games, Papa taught the kids the quarter elbow flip trick!, Star Wars Episode V

Mon - dance with Jillian (Pat's daughter), the kids spent the night with Papa since my Mom and I went to a painting class (we painted birch trees) with Sara, Sharon and Penney (just to name a few).
This was the night that I went downstairs to find a note on my bedroom door that read: "your kids are in here."  Sure enough, my bed was occupied by two sleeping children!  I didn't want to wake them so I ended up sleeping on Jace's bottom bunk in the kids room.  Lol!
