Jon and I decided to take a week long trip to Minneapolis, MN the last week of June. We went to help Laura & Ella drive to Indiana... a 12 hour drive....for her OB appt.
The day before we flew out, I was tending little Janie. She wanted to get right into the middle of my packing and had a great time in the suitcase.
This was the car we rented...a Dodge Nitro-SUV. Here are a few photos of our road trip. Ella was a good little traveler with her books, movies and snacks her mother had prepared.
Ella was so happy to get to her home in Indiana! She had fun exploring outside after we arrived, touching base with all back home... even the neighbor's cat.
After our quick trip to Indiana, and finding #2 baby coming along great, we headed back to MN. We had a great time visiting the falls, the Mississippi River, the water park inside our Radisson Hotel, and a drive across town to visit the Minneapolis/St.Paul Temple.
While Laura & Mike visited the temple, Ella, Jon and I enjoyed an evening at the Mall of America enjoying dinner there and walking around. Legoland was a hit.
It was a special cherished time with our daughter and granddaughter. We developed a bond again with this sweet family and enjoyed each and every moment!

What fun pictures! Although a few of them I could delete. :-) Thank you again for coming - it made my life so much easier! And it was fun getting you and dad all to myself for a week. What a rare treat!
Good job Cheryl. You're now a Web Developer !! Welcome to programming.
You did get a ton of great pictures!! It looks so pretty out there in the midwest. And I just LOVE that picture of Janie in the suitcase. I made it my desktop picture on my work computer.
