Think I'll sit down here for a bit... (10)

Hubby made it home.

I'm enjoying my coffee right now - anyone else want a cup?

 

[seajoy]

No takers? Well, I'll just drink alone then.
I beat hubby by one point in fantasy football. He is not a happy fellow.
Packers won - as if anyone cares besides me.

 

[QuiltAngel]

I am glad that the Packers won!!

PW, was in Alexandria. There are four of us Pastor Wives who get together twice a year for our "girl's weekend." We have known each other for about 10 years and really get along. It is kind of our own little retreat.

It has been a while since I have been to Mankato. Whenever I head that way again, I shall let you know.

Thanks, Quilty.
I love my all-gals weekend. My friends and I do that every spring.
Hubby and I are going on a weekend away to Frankenmuth, MI in Nov. Anybody been there?

I've never even heard of it and my mom's whole family lived there when I was a child and I still have an aunt and uncle that do live there.

There is a Bavarian Inn there, and also tons of shops, and the huge Christmas mall.

I LOVE Frankenmuth! You HAVE to go to Zehnder's. Best food ever. I love Bronner's as well.

I believe that St. Lorenz LCMS church is the oldest and largest Lutheran Church. I may be incorrect about the oldest, but iirc, it's the largest. Gorgeous too.

This surprises me. I don't know why...but it does.

St. John in Ellisville, MO is the largest LCMS congregation. They have over 6000 baptized members.

 

[QuiltAngel]

I hear so much about Frankenmuth and would love to go someday.

 

[seajoy]

We are in such need of a break after everything that is going on for us. We are both looking forward to our little trip. I'll have to find that church you were talking about, Quilty. I'm always ready to take a picture or two.

Don't think the WELS has a church that big. It would be like a quarter of us were in the same church! (well, maybe a little less than that).

 

[LilLamb219]

oooh I've always wanted to go to Frankenmuth too but could never find anyone else interested in going with me! LOL I even teased my husband that I would just go alone sometime then Have a great time!!!

When I was a child we would split the Christmas holiday or Thanksgiving holiday between the two sets of grandparents. My mom's lived in Minnesota near St. Paul/Minneapolis and my dad's parents lived in Iowa. So I'd only see them once a year, sometimes more but usually once a year and since the trip was to spend time with the family, I didn't see really any other parts of Minnesota that I can recall now some 30 years later.

Frankenmuth is in Michigan, Zec.
