So after our fancy McDonald's dinner. We went home and quickly changed the girls out of their dresses. Sadly, the day we arrived in Minnesota my Uncle Mike's (married to Auntie Lina my dad's sister) father past away. So Sunday evening, after our crazy day of family visiting and traveling we headed over to the Anderson's (Uncle Mike's family) home to pay our respects. Bella and Brynn took this opportunity for some more Auntie Lina time!
After a short visit, we finally headed "home" and completely crashed. And wouldn't you know it the girls finally slept past 6:30, they waited a whole, whopping 45 minutes later to wake up the next morning! So that morning after a nice family breakfast we started saying our goodbyes.
I must tell a story. The other day the Hub's, while watching the girls playing together, asked Bella who her best friend was (trying to get her to say her sister, Brynn) but she looks right at him and says, "Auntie Lina!"
It's always sad to say goodbye to family. The Hub's and I, although blessed with great friends, often feel the pain of not having family close, so we cherish these trips no matter how quick they might be!
