We decided that a good group activity would be to check out the National Eagle Center in Wabasha (also home to Grumpy Old Men movie). Here are a few pictures from our time there:
Gerrit admired from a distance and didn't want his picture taken with an Eagle. They had a few parrots there as there was an event involving them at the local school auditorium later in the day. We did see a few eagles out on the water while we were there too. MN has the largest eagle population in the lower 48 (FYI). [Remember to click on the collage to enlarge the photos.]
Following our outing, we celebrated Gerrit's birthday with the relatives that came for baptism:
He requested football for the theme so I make sure we had plates and napkins to go with the cake. We had our first grilled burgers of the season for dinner followed by cupcakes. When we started to sing 'Happy Birthday', he was embarrassed and hid under the table. He opened a few gifts too: a nice T-ball stand, play doh stuff, and a pop gun (from Opa). The rest of the weekend he wanted to either hit the ball outside or play with the play doh.
