Minnesota Vacation

 We took a weekend trip to go visit Manda, Ben, and Baby Easton.  They were in Minnesota this summer for an internship, and with only a 5 1/2 hour drive we knew we would have to go!  (Going along for the ride with Grandma & Papa made it a no brainer.)

We had a great time!  The boys went to a Twins game, we swam at the pool, played at Manda's house, Dan & Ben went frisbee golfing, and we all went to the Mall of America-ate lunch at the Rainforest Cafe.  Our family stayed at a hotel, so we enjoyed a five star continental breakfast every morning which was AWESOME!  Not so awesome, the flu Nora and Dan had the week before spread to Jack and we had a barfing kid in a hotel room.  Added bonus: I didn't have to do any of the bedding/towels that got a little dirty.  (really, we were very lucky.)

Thank you for the awesome weekend Manda & Ben!  We loved visiting you and are hoping you end up in the midwest after graduation!
