Last Days in Minnesota

We're about to start our drive down to our new home in New Orleans tomorrow (which we haven't seen yet). We're all packed up and really excited to start, especially because we'll be stopping in Chicago along the way to see our friends Mat and Karen. Then, next week we're flying to New York to hang with the Central New York crew before we start life in N'awlins'. So, here are some pics of our last week in Minnesota.

Shelley, Joey, and Derek looking at a pier.

Derek threw a suprise party for Shelley's B-day and it was super fun, these all are of Shelley's work buddies.

I finally got to see them, the Finnish reggae band Conga Se Menne! They were playing at Ely's Blueberry Festival.

Here's the Aysta clan enjoying the rocking Finnish reggae.

Well, we're off tomorrow on another one of our adventures. Thanks so much to everybody for helping us pack and making Minnesota such a great home for the past year or so. We'll miss you Minnesota!!
