Weekend with Serena

Last weekend Serena flew in from Baltimore to spend the weekend with us. Well, with her nieces mostly, but us too! She and the girls had Friday all to themselves. They went to the library, lunch at McDonald's, shopping and photo booth at the mall, movie Marmaduke, followed by more shopping. They had a good time! Jon, Serena and I spent time each evening watching Chuck, Season 2, because Serena hadn't seen it yet. . . . that's a lot of Chuck to squeeze in to 5 nights! We finished up about midnight on Monday night!

Saturday we all drove down to Watertown, SD, 3 hours away to meet up with Jon's parents, his sister Serena, his Grandma Mead and Uncle Dan (who was visiting from Michigan). We had brunch at IHop, visited the Redlin Museum for a little bit and then went to the Bramble Park Zoo once it quit raining. Followed up with dinner at Long John Silver's and driving back home.

Sunday we went to a Girl Scout picnic in the afternoon and kind of hung out the rest of the day. Serena took us all out for dinner at Space Aliens that night. Monday Jon and I both had the day off so we showed Serena around GF & EGF, Jon's office, Widman's Chocolate store, etc. The girls were invited to go swimming with a friend, so they did that in the afternoon while Jon, Serena and I watched more of Chuck and had Dairy Queen.

It was fun for Serena to have some time with the girls, do some spoiling and bonding and just relax.

This weekend my family is headed up and the girls are excited to play with their cousins!
