Vacation

We hit the road Saturday morning for a extra long weekend in the cities. We started off stopping by St. Paul Children's museum. Upon getting there-Clifford had also just entered the building

We then explored the rest of the exhibits including the water world, the ant holes and the swamp. That museum is so much fun that we all, even Mom and Dad, had a great time.

I dropped my parents off at the airport for Vegas on Sunday morning and then we got ready for a party with our friends that live in the cities. We had such a fun time catching up, eating, drinking and playing with the kids. Thanks for all of you that made the trip to Robbinsdale to see us.

We got up Monday morning and headed to the Mall of America!! Our plan was to go tour the underwater world. While in the cities our cell phone pretty much died-so the first stop getting a new cell phone. This is always fun-a new gadget Lance and I can play with. The pics below are of Myla and Van patiently waiting while they activate the new phone.

We then headed to the aquarium. This place was awesome-we have a few pics but then the camera died. We saw sharks, yellow fish, blue fish, sting rays, an octopus, touched star fish and witnessed a 150 lb sea turtle poop.

We had a wonderful vacation. It is so much fun to do special activities like that with the kids and watch them experience new places, animals and surroundings.
