Drive Home

Fortunately, Katie's trip home was wonderful! We stopped twice (once for potty breaks, once for dinner at the Wisconsin Dells). Katie (and we) were glad to be back home!

A Date at The Cottage Cafe

Bryan and I went on a date to the only restaurant in Amboy. It was very cute--seated about 20 people. Tables were hard to come by for our Sunday morning brunch, so we ended up sharing a table with a couple locals. Brunch was delicious. Bryan had a typical omlet, while I ate scrambled eggs and the famous rapsberry bread pudding (made from the prior day's homemade cinnamon rolls).

Here's a picture with our waitress. She knew about us before we got to Minnesota--she helped Shannon clean her house in preparation for our visit!

Driving to Minnesota

We'll do a series of blogs on our weekend trip to Minnesota. First--getting there, we had to stop 3 times due to a dirty diaper, supper for Katie, and supper for mom and dad. Unfortunately, our trip there was difficult. Katie didn't go down for her afternoon nap and preferred to cry for 2 hours. But here's a happy Katie driving while dad gets a quick nap in. Notice hands at 11 and 3 just like in drivers ed.
