Last weekend we took our first family trip!  We headed to Lanesboro, MN for the wedding of our good friends Erik and Melissa. We packed up the van with a lot of stuff! Boy was it full!!  To be fair, Tim was the DJ for the wedding and had all of his equipment in the back, plus golf clubs, luggage and Ethan's "stuff."  We had a comfortable ride in the new van and only had to stop once in each direction for Ethan to eat and be changed. So far Ethan is a great traveler!  The first night was the Grooms dinner at a great German restaurant (lots of good food, beer and a Live German Band).  Ethan slept through the whole thing...Drums, Tuba and all.   Saturday morning, Tim went golfing with the groom, Erik Olson while Kat and I helped out the bride Melissa make favors for the tables at the reception.  Saturday night was the outdoor wedding surrounded by beautiful gardens. Nothing could out shine the bride though.  The ceremony was touching and hit home to those of us who have been married for a while.  The dance was a great time.  Everybody was dancing and Tim and I had a great time picking out music throughout the night. The guests danced until midnight and would have danced longer but we got shut down by "The Man."  

Overall, it was a fabulous weekend!!  Thanks to our newly married friends, Erik and Melissa Olson for a great reason to venture out with a 7 week old baby!!!
