"Uncles" Wade and Neil Come To Town!

Our great friends from Rapid City came out for the weekend to hit Bock Fest with us in New Ulm. We are so blessed to have such loyal, lifelong friends like Wade and Neil. Tim met them in college and they become friends, roommates, and "brothers". They are just as much my friends as Tim's and now uncles of Charlie's.

It was a great time, reminicing college stories, drinking their favorite beer with Tim, and playing with Charlie and Pilsener. Wade - Pilsener has been watching the door to see if you're coming back inside :( (it's pretty sad really).

Aunts Emily and Heather, Uncle JP, and Tim's childhood buddy Tate and G/F Jess came with us to Bock Fest. Nama stayed home with Karlie, Claire, and Charlie while we were gone. Luckily we came home to a happy bunch! I think Nama was ready for a nap :)
