Minnesota: Greg & Elizabeth's Wedding

 Rob and I were super lucky to be able to get away for a full 5 days to Minnesota to celebrate with family for Greg & Elizabeth's wedding. It. Was. A. BLAST! It was our first time both leaving Robert but my parents, Mamie and Papa, were incredible and kept him for us. Honestly, I'm not even sure he missed us- he had so much fun! 

Here we are at the wedding! Everything was beautiful and the food was amazing.







While we were there we got to go to the Minnesota State Fair. We ate our way through the entire fair starting first thing in the morning. Rob documented by taking pictures of everything we ate. I think he got up to about 20 photos. The favorites for me included:  the corndog (classic), fried pickle, and fried Snickers. We rode the Ferris Wheel, the jumbo slide and saw a piglet be born. Besides the wedding, it was the highlight of our trip! 









Rob and I got to go out to dinner for a date night. As much as we missed Robert, it was really nice to have some "us" time. 




We stayed in an awesome house with Patty, Paula and Chip. We loved our time with them. especially our morning coffees on the front porch. One night we walked down to the water. It was beautiful! 


The rehearsal dinner was at a really neat brewery. We had a great time catching up with all the cousins and family! 



Meanwhile back in Virginia, Robert was living his best life with Mamie and Papa. We received daily text messages with pictures of all the fun things they were doing together. 

Robert rode the ferry to Surry. 


Robert read bedtime stories with Papa. 


Robert enjoyed waffles for breakfast. 


Robert went grocery shopping. 


Robert went to the playground. 


Robert played in his pool in our front yard. 


Robert went to Busch Gardens and enjoyed dinner and a show at the Fest House. 


Robert loved going to Charlie's Airport and watching the airplanes while having lunch. And not pictured Robert enjoyed walking around CW with Mamie and Papa.
