Great Day for a Parade!

Finally had a warm, sunny day!  Yipee!  And a busy day it was!

The morning started out with chores; laundry and cooking.  Then it was off to have lunch with Pam.  It was so good to spend time with her!  Did another insurance related errand then off we went to Valentina's school for her marching band event.

The Anwatin Middle School has a great band teacher who has the band do an annual march through the neighborhood.  What a great day for this!  We got there early but were on the side of the school where the band ended; not the start of the route.  Getting caught up to the band was an effort which we eventually accomplished.  Many of the neighbors came out of their houses to watch and give encouragement to the band.  They did a great job of marching, playing their music, and even doing some dance moves.  Here's a picture of the group (Valentina has her blue shirt over a white shirt in this picture):

Then it was on to the Midtown Global Exchange to meet KJ and Rob.  As this is where Allina is also located, we ran into many of Paige's former co-workers as they were leaving work.  It was fun to see so many familiar faces!  It was Rob's birthday so we went out for dinner to celebrate with friends!  He's trying to catch up to us.

We were so glad to be able to participate in these activities while back in the Minneapolis area!  Today we are heading up to the cabin and will be leaving the motorhome up there for the remainder of our stay in MN.  Brett and Bob will be continuing the installation of new windows and some electrical work.  We'll be back in Mpls next week and will be staying at Pam's.  Hope the weather stays warm now!!
