I have the most amazing friends and family ever J I want to thank everyone who made our last week in Minneapolis so special and memorable. Turns out, all you need to do to get spoiled and have people do tons of nice things for you is to move away! Once we finished all of the cleaning, packing and grunt work of moving, we got to enjoy some fun and relaxation.
On Wednesday, Chad and I had spent the afternoon downtown with Katie C., Katie A., and Corey. We had a delicious lunch at The Local. I highly recommend the quinoa tabouli! After lunch we wondered around the city and then cooled off with some Frisbee action in the water at Lake Calhoun.
The fun continued on Thursday night with a lovely and delicious dinner date with Chad’s mom and step-dad. Friday night was jam packed starting with a happy hour with some of my old VA crew in Uptown, followed by Daneen’s birthday celebration in Little Canada, and ending with a crazy dance party in Northeast! We really covered some ground that night!!
On Saturday, our sisters threw us a fabulous going away party at Katie and Sam’s place. We had perfect weather, tons of food, friends, family, and even a few puppies J Thanks again Katie, Sam, Emily, Katie, dad, and everyone else who cooked, cleaned, planned, etc. We had a blast and really appreciated everything. Oh yeah, and a special thanks to Chuck and the rest of his crew who put on a hilarious skit at the party, I love, love, loved your performances!
