Most of you probably already know that Stan recently accepted a new job and had to spend his first two weeks with his new company (called... The NERDERY. Ha...) in Minneapolis. So...Isaac and I drove up to see him for a long weekend between those 2 weeks. We had a blast! Here are some of our highlights. Wish I had time to write more about the trip.... but.... here's what I've got for now:
 |
Someone did absolutely GREAT on the road. :)
|
 |
| One word: FUN!!!! |
 |
| Isaac heaven! |
 |
| So we found this truck in the M. of A.... |
 |
| ....and we stayed there a while... |
 |
| ...and played... |
 |
| ...and explored... |
 |
| ...and laughed... |
 |
| ...and climbed... |
 |
| ...together... |
 |
| ...and I LOVED it. |
 |
| The view into the amusement park in the center of the M. of A. HUGE!! and SO FUN! |
 |
| They have tons of these huge lego statue-things. |
 |
Isaac and I went and re-explored the M. of A. while Stan was working on Monday. There was hardly anyone there...and Isaac and I got to ride several little-kid rides together. We had a blast! This was a "big rig" (like Grandpa drives!!) ride.
Isaac ADORES hot air balloons so this ride ROCKED! :) He still talks about it.
This is an up-and-down-bouncy-fun ride (like the Detonator...? Is that what it's called?) that the attendant let me ride for free (sshhh!) with Isaac so he wouldn't be scared. Don't worry - there was a belt thing that came down over our laps to keep us from flying off when the ride started. Mr. Attendant Man also was kind enough to take a pic for me...which includes half of his finger....and I think it's funny. :)

Playing at the Lego Store! (Okay, so his attention span for this only lasted about 2 minutes and I
had to put Legos in his hands and snap pictures really fast before he lost interest. There. I was honest. :) ) |
Moving on from the M. of A....
 |
| Does this even need an explanation? AAAAAh-mazing. |
 |
| My friend Kelsey told me about this local pizza chain - DaVanni's. DeLISH!!! We ate there twice! :) |
OKAY! There ya have it! I will do my best to post more pics in the next few days!
