Minnesota Miscellany



Grandson Matthew Paul C. M. was officially baptized on Sunday, January 11 at the 9 o'clock service at the St. Christopher's Episcopal Church in St. Paul. Drew and I stood up at the baptismal fount with Matthew, Bobbe and Justin; also my dad, Robert, and his wife, Ann (who live just over the St. Croix River in Hudson, Wisconsin) came to give support.



This is one of the gifts Matthew received after his ceremony.

Matthew and his proud parents.

Matthew and Bobbe showing grandma
and grandpa his new Wii Fit exercises.
Matthew is very balanced;
grandma and grandpa aren't.



Ann with her new dog, Maddie.

mower/snowblower repair shop out in his garage.



We saw a lone picnic table at a rest
area on the way up to Minnesota.

How can Matthew grow so big so fast?! What a cutie! And how nice that Great-Grandpa could join in the celebration!

Minnesota is TOO FAR AWAY, isn't it?!

Sorry...I didn't mean to steal your word. Great minds must think alike! :)
