Time With the Family

While Eric was in North Carolina this past week I decided to go back to Portage for the second half of the week. Owen and I were able to spend lots of time with the family. We were busy, but it was great to see everyone.

On Thursday we went to lunch with Grandpa Steve and Great Aunt Chris at Beth's favorite Chinese restaurant.
After lunch Owen and I went to see Great Grandma Diane and Great Grandpa Clarence

That evening Owen and I spent some time with Grandma Carol. We went to Madison to go shopping and Owen got a few new toys that he loves.

On Friday we went to Jackson so Owen could meet his Great Aunt Sue and Great Uncle Jim. Great Uncle Dave drove us there in his brand new truck. Friday night we went to the outlet mall in the Dells and got Owen some new summer clothes.

On Saturday we were able to go out to lunch with Owen's Great Uncle Bob. He hasn't gotten to see Owen since New Year's.

Saturday night we spent celebrating Grandpa John's birthday. He only thought Liz and Elaine would be there to celebrate with him. But we were able to pull a fast one on him and Eric, Owen, Myself, Ian, and Brittany all sowed up to surprise him. We ended the weekend by going to church and then driving back to Eau Claire. What is normally a two hour drive took us well over four hours. It was a great weekend, but we are all glad to be home!
