Last Trip to Minnesota

Matt has finished his residency! so we headed to Minnesota one last time for "graduation" and to help with the kids as the family prepared to move to Bend, OR. Congratulations, Matt.

Unless one of our other children decides they like cold winters or we have a connecting flight through MSP, we don't expect to return to Minnesota. It's been fun visiting the twin cities, but are glad that Matt's medical training is complete and the family won't have to endure another interminable winter. We had fun, as usual, with Annabelle, Ben, Jacob, and Elisabeth, keeping them occupied while Mom and Dad did all the moving stuff. Here's the last breakfast in the old house.

Grandpa's first (and last) trip to the Mall of America.


Fun at the Como Zoo.

One last hike around Shultz Lake.


"Honey, I shrunk the kids!" Not really, we just found a really big chair in front of the place where Matt and Emily were attending the settlement on the sale of their home on the way out of town.
