This weekend has truly been beautiful, in every way it could have been. Both Saturday and Sunday we broke temperature records in the Twin Cities (it's been in the 60's!), and we were finally able to open the windows and get some fresh air in the house. Our day included cleaning, laundry, and a walking trip to the park with the entire family. Mitch and I finished the day with a date night (thanks Grama JG for volunteering after our normal sitter got mono!), where we had entirely too much food and drink, and it was wonderful.
Sunday we had "an adventure!" into Minneapolis to visit Aunt Katie and Uncle Boston. In the car, Gizmo gave Gonzo speech lessons ("Can you say 'Min-ee-app-ol-is', Gonzo?"). Gonzo happily babbled back. We had lunch at Panera, which, if you ask Gizmo, was the best part of the day, and then went for a walk through the park adjacent to Katie and Boston's apartment. We also walked over to the Sculpture Garden, where I viewed for the first time the Spoonbridge and Cherry. Gizmo and Gonzo happily rode along in the double stroller while Mitch got his workout pushing the two of them through the almost hour-long walk. After naps, we finished the day playing outside in the sand table.
The weather forecast calls for continued warm weather and record-breaking heat. Hello, spring!
