Other comings and goings the past few weeks

We made another trip to the MOA for shopping and rides...checked out the new American Girl doll store too.
Alec and his tractor & grain cart. We've been putting a big puzzle together
and playing with legos and games in front of the fire on many eves. Good times.
We've discovered you can make pretty good 5 minute
chocolate cake in a cup! But,..no more til after Mexico for me (we'll see if I can
actually keep the resolution!)
A sledding party


We had a nice time and WAY t00 much food at a party at Jamin and Alyssa's.
Autumn and Alec loved Aaron and Lisa's dogs


One day we went to the Mall of America with some friends. It was our first time to visit Underwater World, and we all thought it was pretty cool.
Here the kids are trying to get up the nerve to touch the stingrays and sharks.
Walking in the tunnel surrounded by sharks and such...

cool stingray

saw fish
kids enjoying it...

the 300 1st and city cafe...are they open on sat for lunch? seems like when i looked on their website they didn't open until 5-ish also. i love going to new places that have character, are unique, and that you can't find in every town. i was looking for some neat places in that town that are not the usual panera, noodles, etc that we always go to.
also...do you consignment shop too? and if you do...what are the good places to go to? i know of 2 places in rochester, but just wondering if there are more that are decent too.

I usually go to All in Vogue and Refashion. We have gone to savers and goodwill sometimes too...but you need more time at those places since they're larger. I went to Kismet for the first time this wknd. I love it! The decorating is neat, the house stuff is fun too! I just found Children's Exchange 2 weeks ago too. And I've gone to Once Upon a Child also.
