Minneapolis

Get ready for picture overload.

The first day at the zoo.

 This was probably my favorite day. Just riding the bikes from park to park til we got to Minehaha falls. And then Chrissy got us this great African food. Yum!

 Oliver's first golf lesson.

 Teddy was obsessed with A-bae. We had to watch him really close and often he got to her without our knowledge. By the end she started crying everytime he came near.

 We spent two days at the zoo. It was huge! And really different from ours, so we really enjoyed it.

 How the boys looked for the 5k race. They were great. Their first race.

 We had to let the boys run across for some cute pictures.

 Little glitter tattoos. They stayed on well for a good week. They got to choose their own design and then they would stencil on the glue, then brush on the glitter colors of choice.

 We had a lot of fun at the cabin. Lots of trailer rides, playing in the water, fishing and enjoying the outdoors and great weather.

 Oliver didn't really think that fishing was that cool. I guess he hasn't been exposed enough.

 Grant caught the first fish.

 I caught the middle two fish. The big was was 9 lbs! It was all about believing in myself and letting the line vibrate. Robin came over and cooked the fish for us and it was the best fish I've ever had. It tasted like chicken. Oliver ate two filets!

Apples to keep the kids occupied.

 A pretty quarry on the way back from the cabin.

 Teddy trying on Owen's Halloween costume from last year.

 Aylin by the end of the trip. She really chunked up in a week.

 I lucked out getting the back row of the airplane, where Teddy was able to have his own seat. And each seat had its own TV, so we all watched our own shows the whole time.

 I had the boys carry their own bags. Teddy looked so adorable wobbling around with his backpack.

 The many faces Aylin. She was so adorable! And she grew so much in the 8 days we were there.

 Oliver wasn't sure about this, I think he was scared. But he loved it in the end. He especially liked having the lady help him flip.

 Teddy begged to go on this trampoline thing. He thought it was so much fun and didn't want to get off.

 Teddy walked around the playground, would get on things, pose and ask me to take a picture of him.
