We were lucky, yet again, to have help from family in June while dad was busy with work meetings and out of town. This time, Oma visited with our long time family friend, Maude. They enjoyed being tourists on their drive to and from Minnesota and exploring the Twin Cities (when they weren't busy helping with the day to day routine at our house with Henry and Lucas). I also got to join in on some of their adventures which included visiting the St. Paul cathedral, Minnehaha Park,Walker Art sculpture garden, Minneapolis Basilica, Foshay tower observation deck, Guthrie theater and walks along the Mississippi River parkway. Oma and Maude also got to experience the severe weather storm that caused dad's airplane to be rerouted to Sioux Falls instead of Minneapolis and us to lose power for 24 hours. There was significant damage in our neighborhood from fallen trees and fallen limbs, but our home was luckily spared. I unfortunately took very few pictures of Oma and Maude with Henry and Lucas, but needless to say, they provided a tremendous amount of help while visiting and the boys loved the extra attention and hugs.
