Minnesota Trip October 2009
All I can say is "WOW!" Jordan and I went to Minnesota for a 6 day weekend trip. My mom treated us so well; she still can whip up some great meals at 81 years of age. We also spent time with my brother, Mark, who is recovering from a knee replacement, his wife, Brenda, their kids Nate, Bart, and Tim, and Nate's family, Melesa, Sam, and Gabe, and Bart's family, Marta, Seby, and Ava. Jordan and I went to a Twins game, one of the last in the Metrodome, an open house for the new University of Minnesota Gopher football stadium, to a mass in the Basilica, watched the LDS General Conference, took mom to Olive Garden, and the pinnacle event.... the Minnesota Vikings vs. Green Bay Packers Monday Night Football game. It was the first time that Brett Favre had faced his old team. He has now played against and won a game from every team in the NFL, after he, Jared Allen's 4.5 sacks, and Adrian Peterson's rushing led to a 30-23 win. What a BLAST! My two new favorite songs are "Skol Vikings" and "Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin.
