Memorial Day Weekend in MN





We had such an amazing weekend back home in Minnesota over Memorial Day weekend! Check out that view of downtown....it made our hearts sing!

We started off the weekend on Friday celebrating the wedding of our dear friends, Erin and Nate! They had a gorgeous wedding downtown St. Paul complete with beautiful weather, flowering Spring blossoms, and Irish bagpipes! It was a perfect day to celebrate their love and we couldn't be happier for them! They even had these awesome growlers as centerpieces on their tables!


Here is the happy couple during their first dance! So happy for them!
Andy and I all done up for the night!


All the St. Thomas ladies together again! I missed you all!



We also celebrated our friends Chris and Nicole with a beautiful wedding shower hosted by Andy's parents and other friends of the couple. They had local beer pairings with different appetizers all around the house! It was so good! Think Fulton growler paired with mini brats....yes yum. It was so fun to catch up with friends and enjoy the beautiful summer night outside. We are so excited for their wedding on the Fourth of July! I don't know how I didn't get any pictures of the night...but I have a couple I stole from other people to share with you! :)

Missed you ladies!! Thanks for the picture Kathryn!


We came home just in time for the Spring blooms on my parents' trees! They smelled divine and it has always been a favorite time of year at my parents' house.




During the weekend we also went bike riding to Minnehaha Falls in St. Paul and Minneapolis. Andy's parents, sister Emily, and her kids came along and we had so much fun seeing our old neighborhood again, soaking up the most amazing sight of the falls, and spending sweet time with our nieces and nephew. 

At first we thought that all three would fit comfortably in the Burley....I don't think that this would have lasted very long! We borrowed a second one then we were on our way!





What better than to finish off the weekend at the Flagship (Lifetime) pool just like old times! 



All in all we had a great weekend visiting and catching up with family and friends back in MN where the weather was beautiful and Spring was flourishing! We are looking forward to our friends visiting us this coming weekend down in Dallas! We can't wait to show them around town! :)
