Trip to Minnesota in June!

So we are really far behind on the blogging lately! We will try to get caught up. Spring and summer have been a whirlwind, but we did take a break and went to see Kennet's family in Minnesota for a week in June. It was a fantastic trip with beautiful weather and time to see friends and family. We celebrated our niece Ella's baptism, our other niece Anna's 3rd birthday, and Father's Day. We spent a lot of time watching the girls play together and really enjoyed our week. We had a wonderful vacation out there and can't wait to see them all again at the end of August here in Spokane for Elsa's 2nd birthday party! Here are some pictures from our week out there. We also have lots of pictures from summer and the 4th of July at Flathead so we will get those up here soon too.
One of Elsa's very favorite things to do these days is to water the flowers!!! She helped Nona water hers in MN too!

Elsa playing in her swimsuit, she is loving summer!!
Anna and Elsa playing with the hose in the backyard, they had a ball running through the sprinklers and washing their feet!

Elsa loved the Como Zoo in St. Paul, but her favorite had to be the giraffes.
Kennet is holding her up so she can the this one nice and close. We also saw an adorable baby giraffe but could not get a good picture of her.

It was such fun to watch the girls together all week! Elsa and Anna are 14 months apart, and they had a ball together!
Teeter-Totter!!

Here we are outside of the Bradburns house after the baptism.
