A Sleepover to End the Summer

August 28, 2025

Caleb is playing on his Switch because he was not interested in 
Charlotte's choice of movie. He got to choose the next movie.

Caleb and Charlotte are spending the night with us while Megan, Jeremy, and Oliver went to the Gophers’ first football game of the season.

The grandkids and I had a fun evening—dinner at Applebee’s and then movies at home until 11:30 p.m. That’s pretty late for them, but they managed it just fine.

Even though we have three guest bedrooms, I let them decide where they wanted to sleep. Both chose the family room. Charlotte wanted the tent, so Grandpa Joe set it up before he left for work. Caleb preferred to sleep out in the open on our special foam air mattress.

It feels like summer has slipped by in a flash, but nights like this remind me to appreciate these sweet moments.
