Minnesota Trip: Family Reunion

A few days ago, we returned from our trip to Minnesota to have Les' family reunion (Lonna's side) and visit lots of family members that reside there. We went for 5 days and it was a busy trip driving to various cities to visit all the family members from both sides. Our first stop was 2 nights in Albert Lea...this is where Les' mom, Lonna grew up. The pictures below are from her side of the families reunion. It was a long day (no naps for my little munchkins), but a lot of fun getting to meet several members of Les' family that I hadn't before met. I have to say everybody is so nice and down to earth. Hope to get a chance to spend time with them again in the future.

Les' grandparents (his moms side, the Herths) family farm....Les spent many summers at this farm. Was really neat to see what was such a huge part of Les childhood. It is a beautiful farm!
