A few weeks ago my great aunt, Sandy flew into town to surprise her son, Eric for his birthday. He and his family live in San Francisco so we were excited to make the trip to see them. Sandy lives in Minnesota so we don't get to see her often and we weren't going to miss our chance. We had the nicest afternoon with them! They barbecued beer brats with sour kraut. Sandy made her famous potato salad and we had snack foods like chips and a veggie tray. Nothing like comfort food aye? YUMMM! Plus, that meant the kids could have fun and play instead of sitting still in a restaurant.
These two have WAY too much energy to sit still for long!
Sandy was always a fun aunt and it's plain to see she hasn't lost her touch. She had the girl's complete attention just like she always had mine. I recall visiting her as a kid. She had a poodle and she painted it's toe nails. I thought that was the coolest thing EVER! I wanted a poodle because of her.
We decided Pappy might be the biggest kid of all.
There's always time to stop for German chocolate cake.
We can't wait til you return aunt Sandy!

I love any woman that can make a good potato salad! Looks like you all had a good time together.
What a neat visit!
Sounds like cookouts that we have around here in Wisconsin. Love those brats and potato salad!
Glad you all had such fun! Hey, we have brats & potato salad in Texas too!
Isn't it great to have such special relatives? There's always one or two in every family who are especially wonderful.
