Visit to Minnesota

This week we took a trip out to see Granny and Grandpa and also your Aunt/Uncle and cousins, Jonathan and James. We haven't seen them in a long time so Jonathan and James looked totally different.

We had fun hanging out with them but they are a bit older than you so don't have a lot in common. That may be one of the last times we see Jonathan. He'll be off to college soon. Perhaps he can come out and visit us.

Other than that we went to the Minnesota Science Museum which was interesting and we spent two days at the Mall of America. Now a mall isn't generally our favorite place to hang out but they had two great things there - an amusement park in the middle (we have very little footage of that unfortunately) and an aquarium. Both were fun but you loved the amusement rides. The park was themed after Nickelodeon so it had Spongebob and Avatar rides. Even mommy and daddy will admit the rides were fun.

Probably most fun was the Gangplank Ropes Course where we wore harnesses and climbed over a big rig of ropes and wobbly planks. It was scary for all of us but we all made it safely through except for Caden who was just too scared to do it and managed to only get up two sets of stairs.
