| Mark had some traveling to do with work. Since we homeschool, we traveled along with him! We got to see a lot of neat things! Mark was getting a little jealous! :-) |

This week we went to Minneapolis, MN.
February 19-24, 2007 Our kids are adapting to hotel life pretty good. Usually these three are sharing a mat on the floor, but made them nap this day and they asked to be in the bed.

Mark and Malachi rode the A.C.E.S flight simulators

It is not a trip to Minneapolis without going to the Mall of America, right? At least this time. We've been there and done that, as far as I'm concerned though. I'm not a big mall person.

One night at the Mall, we rode the rides. Well, Sadie took a little nap
|
and then |
rode some rides!

We all rode the large ferris wheel too!

The kids had so much fun, but we were very exhausted!

|
It isn't a trip to Minneapolis without getting a picture next to one of its most famous icons!

We went to Como Park and Zoo. The conservatory was beautiful! I didn't want to leave this taste of spring! |

It was SO COOL to see a Polar Bear! I hadn't expected that! It kept swimming right up to the glass, it's paws are so huge! Wow! God is amazing how he has created all these creatures! |
|
We got rained on a little on far side of the river on this Old Mill bridge downtown.
