Minnesota in Pictures!!

We spent a week in MN visiting family and braving the snowy cold! We had a great week, kept busy taking advantage of all the indoor kid friendly activites the cities have to offer, and hopefully didn't wear out our welcome with our crazy kiddos! We went to not only visit family but celebrate some important birthdays. Karl's dad turned 60 and his sister 30. Happy Birthday!!

Andra and Erin took the boys to a children's play. They saw Babe. It was about a farm and talking animals!! You would have to ask the boys for details...I heard the boys got yummy treats at intermission! They had a good time and I was told the boys sat and watched the play nicely.
Bowling!

Snowmobile riding with Doug. Micah didn't want to go outside and had more fun playing with Joie's dolls inside! Matt was very proud of himself and asked Doug to "please take me on one more ride" again and again!
Building a snow tower with Grandma. The snow was very dry so we couldn't make a snowman but Grandma was creative and suggested a snow tower!
Sleding! We went to a perfect little hill just a few miles from the house and intoduced the boys to REAL sleding. They were fearless and had a blast. Matt wanted to go down the first time alone and after an few runs down Micah decided to go head first laying on his stomach!
Baking cookies with Grandma. 3 very good cookie bakers!
Our snow fort. The next day we walked back to the fort to see how it was holding up and decided to buid it another foot highter. It was very cool!
One last picture before leaving for the airport.
Those are just a few of our pictures. We also went to the MN Children's Museum, Como Zoo, indoor play area, children's book store, and spent a lot of time playing with cars and tinker toys in the basement!
We have been home for a week now and are gearing up for Matt's 5th birthday on the 15th. He wanted to go to Disneyland so that is were we are headed! Stay tuned for our Disneyland adventures and pictures. I don't think it is possible for a little boy to be more excited for his birthday than Matt is this year! I love it!
