Mother's Day weekend



On Mother's day weekend we went north to Minnesota for cousin Patrick's 2nd birthday. On Saturday the whole family went for a walk at a local arboretum-type place. Grandma, Emma, Patrick and Aunt Susan shared a bench- for about 30 seconds. Then the kids were off and moving!

Later at the party, Emma enjoyed swinging with Patrick and a second cousin, Jackson. They also got to find and collect all the pieces to the train accident that had occurred in the yard.
After dinner Emma got to decorate her own train car cake! She expertly squeezed out the frosting and added some colorful candy decorations. She was particularly taken with the gummy life savers.

On Sunday we all headed to a Culver's for a lunch treat on Grandpa. We had some cheese curds and french fries to share. Plus, there were free scoops for all the mothers. Emma used her scoopie ticket to order vanilla custard with oreo cookies. She ate every last bite, which isn't too surprising. Grandma said it was the best mother's day ever!
