Our Big Trip To the Twin Cities

We finally took the trip to see Amanda and her family!

We drove down to Golden Valley on Wednesday night because there was a winter storm advisory going on for the northern part of our travels. The roads weren't too bad, but I was sure glad when we got ahead of the storm.

On Thursday we headed for the Mall of America, specifically the American Girl Store and Lego Land.

Emma and Brenna have their American Girl Dolls and here they are standing next to the Store and overlooking what used to be Camp Snoopy, now known as something like Nickelodeon Land.



The girls just about to enter the American Girl Store! So EXCITING!

I was put in charge of watching the girls while E and B went on rides. They got alot of smiles and waves sitting on the bench with their treats.

Sorry these are so dark, I took my small camera :(

Creed got to ride on Franklin, he was in a very happy place!
Now, the boys turn...Lego Land! All I can say is WOW! This Star Wars thing is made from legos! There were dinosaurs and palm trees and so much more all made from LEGOS!

After a long day, Creed makes himself at home.

The girls make a "beware" barrier for the boys! :) LOL! (all the Barbie's are naked) EWWW!

On Friday we went to the Cina Grill. We watched Aliens in the Attic and ate our lunch.
