The Extra Pieces of Vacation

I had one of those vacations that I did not want to leave. It seemed silly that I had to come back to Minnesota, even though I am not sure I had the energy to go on any longer. 

I arrived home after a week at Bible Camp and Day Camp to help pull off a party to celebrate my Dad’s 65th birthday and retirement. The next day was spent at Citizen’s Bank Park with Kathleen and Kendall. Chris and Leslie arrived the next day. We worked on details for Chris’ upcoming wedding. We also had the chance to check-out Love Letters and some other great city sites. In-between I caught a night out with Natalie, and John stopped by for some water-ice and waffles following a campaign. And then Leslie, Chris and I were off to Boston. Sammie snuggled with me in the back site. We spent time getting ready for the wedding, including last minute crafts, manicure and pedicures, and getting Camp Lincoln ready. It was then wedding time! Chris and Mike showed up for the rehearsal as the sexton and the vicar. Many of the rest of us showed up sweaty. The next day they were married. Chris and Leslie’s ordination was held right outside of Boston the next day. A highlight was per-ordination fro-yo with Michelle and Keith. 

I get so excited when my days home are spent surrounded with family and friends, visits to Chickie and Pete’s, water ice and murals. I could go on and on about this trip home. I’m really excited that I will be home next year at the same time as my Delco BFF is getting married. I hope she is ready for this wedding planning pro.
