I have so many wonderful memories that Katie helped create for me and my family. Here is the one that earned Katie the nickname "Bubble Fight Katie" with my kids.
Katie came to spend the weekend with us in Eveleth a few years back. When she arrived my daughters were upstairs playing in the bathtub. Katie put down her backpack and immediately headed up the stairs to go and say hello to the kids. They had been asking "when is Katie going to be here" all day so as soon as they saw her I heard the laughter begin. After a couple of minutes I heard the jets on the bathtub turn on and Katie's mischievous laugh accompanied by the laughter of the kids echoed down the stairway. The laughter continued for a few minutes and knowing Katie to be, well, Katie I figured I better go upstairs and check things out for myself. After all, I didn't want to miss out on whatever fun Katie had conjured up. As I rounded the corner in the hallway I was met with a wall of bubbles up to my waist. Katie was standing in the entry to the bathroom and she was covered in bubbles. The girls were still in the tub. The bubbles had risen above their heads by this point but that hadn't stopped them. Katie and the girls continued to sling bubbles at each other and laughing hysterically. The kids never forgot that moment and to this day my daughters refer to her as bubble fight Katie.
