The Introductions Continue :)

This last weekend the boys' Grandma, Papa, Uncle Tim, Aunt Faye, and cousins Izzy and Sophie came for a visit. We had a great time playing, eating treats (thanks Grandma), and holding babies & toddlers. Charlie enjoyed his time with the family and as always hates to see them go. He always seems to pick up right where he left off with his cousins, uncles, and aunts from Rapid City. It makes me very happy to see this since sometimes there is way too big of a gap between visits. We do what we can on both ends to make it easier on our kiddos and each other.

As many of you know, all 3 of our Tims have a birthday in October (Tim O. is 10-07, Tim II is 10-08, and my dad Tim is 10-19 - we won't share the years). Since they were all here we decided to celebrate together. It was a great time and hopefully we can do it again next year.

Thank you Tim and Faye for spending your long weekend in MN. It means the world to Tim and I that you got here. Thanks to Mom and Dad for another great weekend with you as well - you know your room is always ready at the Haggar-Olson Inn.

My brother Tim and sis in law Faye made the babies Vikings blankets and Charlie a Vikes pillow as well

Charlie and Izzy had to help Uncle tim blow out his candle on the cake

Happy Birthday Dad, brother, and husband!!!

Tim FINALLY has his KEEN's. Charlie, my dad, and I all have a few pairs and Tim has always wanted some.
