Land of 10,000 Lakes

A few weeks ago Morelli and I decided to venture up to the Twin Cities. My sister was having a get together with all of her high school friends for their 10 year class reunion. Since she lives in Texas she hasn't yet had a chance to meet her new nephew puppy, or see my new car. So, I was thrilled when she invited me up for the weekend to hang out with her and her friends. I have to say as the weekend was coming to an end I couldn't help but laugh at myself on the ride home.

10 years... that is a crazy long time. Ten years ago my sister and all of her friends were starting out for college and all the crazy adventures that life would throw at them in the next few years. At the time my sister and I didn't get a long very well and... well... i was the annoying little tag alone with Jenn and all her friends. So now 10 years later after the end of a great weekend I couldn't help but look back and laugh at how much time can change things. I feel so honored that now my sister is my best friend and she wanted me to tag along. So here are a few pictures of that trip. Enjoy.

My cousins Aaron and Peter enjoying themselves at the splash pad

My sister's bff from high school's little boy Chase... such a cute and brave little man

while we were in the splash pad Morelli was tied up just outside the fence so I took some fun pics through it :)

To many toys to pic from.... favorite is just any ol' stick

My sister Jenn, me, and my cousins Aaron and Peter

Morelli slept all the way home from minnesota, which my the trip home fast!! I love my little man!

And finally a more recent pic of Morelli and me

Traveling with Morelli made the trip so much fun despite the fact that I had so much more to fit into my tiny ford focus (his kennel is so darn big) but so worth it for a chance to see my sis and have a great weekend with her and her friends.
