Hello my friends!! Well we are officially outta here!!! On the road to our adventure, with my son’s wedding enroute!!
ABOVE: Kate and her dad made this sign for the wedding which is going to be very down home and organic. Lots of recycled components are part of the festivities and old fashioned charm. I can’t wait!!! It will be all a surprise to this mother of the groom since I live so far away which is pretty much guaranteed to be a blast. I love surprises!!
ABOVE: The happy couple at their shower
Bryan and his fiance Kate are getting married this weekend in Minneapolis, and we are so excited for them we can hardly wait. We will stay to visit family for a couple of days then off again to head for Cairo Egypt as the first stop on our journey

Seems September and August got their Temps mixed up Sandy 🙂 It’s been in the 80’s the past few days and I don’t think It’s supposed to dip below mid-70’s all weekend. Partly to mostly sunny and getting into the high 50’s at night. 🙂 Not quite “Autumn in MN” but pretty darn good enough that I’ll take it! 🙂
Wish I could meet you and Steve at the airport today 😛
Typing from a real computer now. Ohhhhhhh I so wish I could see you all in Mpls while I’m there but I’ll be back before the end of the year. We should all have a get together …a “meet and greet” of all my buddies who may or may not know each other , but all see one anothers names on the blog etc.
So thrilled the weather looks good!!! I’m so excited to get there . There is nothing more beautiful than a Minnesota autumn day when the weather is cooperating!!!
I will pass on all your good wishes to the bride and groom!!! Luv you all so much!!!
Bryan and Kate couldn’t have ASKED for more beautiful weather this weekend it seems! Have a VERY safe trip here and then an amazing journey as you head out into the beyond 🙂
Can’t wait for updates! 🙂 <3 you!
