Fun weekend!

Hello All, I hope that this post finds you happy and healthy! I know it's Tuesday but we haven't blogged for about a week and figured we should say hi.

We had a full & busy weekend. Friday night Trav & I went on a date night. We went out to the MN Orchestra. Yes we really do enjoy going to the orchestra and listening to the music. This weeks performance included Rachmaninoff's Symphony #3, Ravel's Mother Goose Suite, and Stravinsky's Firebird Suite. All excellent pieces of music. Addie had a good evening with our neighbor Casey. I warned Casey that Addie has developed some pipes and likes to use them. Sure enough Addie wailed for about 30 minutes before she finally gave up and went to sleep. It just depends on the night. Some nights she's really good about going to sleep and others she just fights it terribly.

Saturday we had an eventful day. Trav had an umpire clinic for all of the newbies. Hopefully this year with the new association everything will go smooth and they'll be the best umpires in the metro area. Addie & I bummed around running errands in the morning. It was raining off and on all day till the afternoon. Right as we pulled into the MN Zoo, the sun decided to come out and shine. It was exactly what we needed. We met some of our friends from church and walked around the zoo for a couple of hours. Addie really enjoyed watching the dolphin training session. I was having a good time too till Addie decided to throw up all over my lap. Not just a little bit either. A ton of chunky, curdled milk...YUCK!! Oh well but it's nothing new and all part of the job. =)

Sunday, we had all of the storms coming ripping through the Minneapolis Area. Thankfully we did not have any destruction around us. We are south of the area that had the tornado. Travis actually went and played golf with Mike in the afternoon. They were only called off the course for about 40 minutes and then they went back out to finish the round. A good amount of people left so they basically had the course to themselves. Addie & I hung out with Jane for the afternoon. We had a lovely time playing, reading books, doing tummy time. We went for a short walk to take Gussie out but turned around when it began to sprinkle. That was a wise decision because it stormed off and on for the remainder for the afternoon. In between Addie's cat naps, Jane & I were able to play a few games of cribbage. The guys returned and they brought the sun back from the golfing with them. It turned out to be a nice evening.

Until next time,
Love Trav, Tiff & Addie

P.S. We're coming to Ripon for Memorial weekend. So I'm sure we'll see most of you at some point. For everyone else, have a wonderful and safe kick-off to summer!!
