ScrapBee at the BrauHaus

ScrapBee hosted its first ever 7 hour crop at the BrauHaus in Lucan on Saturday!  We had a GREAT time.  I hope we can do this again soon - it was so much fun.  All of my siblings were there at the bar along with their significant others (even my German sister, Tina and her boyfriend Torsten!), so we had a lot of fun after the crop was over too.

Here is one of the cards that was in our card kits that everyone got at the crop.

This is a picture of some of the tools we had out for everyone to use.  Between me, Laurie, Mer and Krista, I seriously think we could open our own scrapbook store and send at least one of our children to college with that money...

Me and my BFF.  Mer, can you believe we've been best friends for 17 years???  That's amazing.  (and wow - that ages us too, huh??) :)

The whole "Weidemann clan" - me and Brian, Christi and Jon, Ashley and Joel, Tina and Torsten.  It was so much fun to have us all together.  I love this picture.  

Tina & Torsten's visit

Tina and Torsten were able to come from Germany for my brother's wedding and spend the week in MN.  We had SUCH a great time having them here!!  We visited the Belview Bar and Legion, went to a Twins game, the MN zoo, scrapbooked at the BrauHaus, and ate at Benihana.  Brian even taught Torsten how to play softball.  He was a natural.  :)   Jack also learned some German from Tina!!  I'll do my best to keep teaching him some words every now and then so that next time Tina and Torsten come to visit, he can impress them with his Deutsche speaking skills.  Thanks for coming to visit, Tina and Torsten!  We will miss you!

Jon & Christi's Wedding

We had a BLAST at Jon & Christi's wedding this past weekend.  Here are a few photos from the day.  I didn't have my camera on me for much of the night, so I don't have a lot of great shots, but you get the idea. :)  Welcome to the family, Christi!!!
