Minnesota Stop

We wrapped up our summer vacation with a stop in Minnesota. We visited with Tim's cousin and his family - Nick, Jessica, Hannah, and Ian - and grandparents. We were also able to enjoy some just-us-family-time in Minneapolis. (Just don't ask us how to get to a restaurant for dinner. Geez.)

I don't know where these two thought they were going, but I wouldn't get in a boat with the two I's at the helm! :)

Oh, good - they DO have a chaperone! You are very brave, Tim!

Hannah (cutie!) :)

Ready for a boat ride!

Okay, people. Here's the proof. I swam in a lake!

Mallory started with a lifevest...

...but wanted her Nemo raft. See - I even ventured off my raft! Aren't you proud of me?!

Ian and Mallory are stylin' in their shades!

So.Cute.

Chillin' at the hotel - I think they sat still only long enough for me to snap this picture.

"Where's my Dora?"

A little nervous at first...

Getting braver...

And a HUG! I think we had to go back for more Dora hugs every hour. Mallory was telling poor innocent people in the elevators that it was HER Dora.

This nice person had some points left on their armband, so they gave it to Isaiah! He was super excited to ride the kid roller coaster and Mack trucks, especially since he wasn't quite as excited to meet Dora.
