Minneapolis

We took a trip to Minneapolis this past weekend to visit our friends Matt & Camie. We had been wanting to go to Minneapolis to do some shopping at IKEA and Mall of America and since Matt was doing his internship at General Mills in Minneapolis, we decided to try to visit them while there and also do some shopping at the same time. It was so great to see all of them! We definitely shared lots of laughs!

We had a great time! We visited, shopped, played and ate!

Lydia & Ava, although 2 1/2 years apart, had a great time playing together all weekend and the adults had fun too. We played with my Cricut, played the board game, Puerto Rico, and even got a babysitter one evening and went out to Fogo de Chao, a Brazilian restaurant known for bringing cuts of meat around the restaurant on swords for you to sample. We also enjoyed playing at the beach, walking the lake to the park, and eating Camie's good food.

Since I have so many pics to share, I decided to copy many of you and put up a web album this time. If it goes too fast or to see bigger pics - just double-click on it. Check out Camie's blog (link on right) for even more pics of our trip and their beautiful home for the summer.
