Rich's 1963 Team and Cloud Cult

The weekend of April 26-28 was a busy one for us and it was very fun! We started the weekend off with swimming lessons on Saturday morning. Our weekly tradition usually includes, swimming lessons, swimming as a family and then Luke and I work out for a bit while the kids go to their respective daycares. Once you turn 3 you can go into this really neat slide area, so Bishop loves it. Unfortunately, Nora is still with the baby, babies, so she's not so fond of it, but it's growing on here. However, April 27th, it was beautiful out, so we left right after swimming and hung out outside for awhile instead.

Grandma and Grandpa came in the afternoon to hang out with the kids. Luke and I biked downtown to the Cloud Cult Concert at First Ave. I'll be honest....I put up a bit of a "fight" against biking downtown to a show, but as Luke suspected, I survived the bike and even enjoyed it! I'm not in shape and I had a million excuses lined up (what will I wear, I'm not comfortable biking in the dark, especially after drinking, etc). Luke was right-it was fun and it didn't take us too long to get there (or get home) ;) I'm sure we'll be doing that again sometime in the future.

Sunday night we celebrated Rich's 1963 St John's Football team that won the National Championship! They were definitely the underdogs in the game and they pulled off a big upset. It was a program held at St Thomas (of all places;), honoring all sorts of football players and contributors (high school scholars, college players, some Vikings players and even some contributors to the sport). It was a fun night for Rich to catch up with some of his old teammates and we heard some great stories about Rich! He was (and still is) a tough guy who was an integral part of their win! Congrats, Rich, you deserve it!
