a few last ones from our Minneapolis/Atlanta trip

These images are totally mixed up...not only mixed up from the other images I posted earlier but mixed up within the ones in this post! These are all from my point and shoot camera. The kids both had booster seats in Atlanta and booster seats don't hold you up. I looked back at them after our day at the aquarium and they were both asleep like this...
From the Lego store in the Mall of America.

On the plane.



Lego Land again.
The morning we left Denver to GO TO Minneapolis...(told you they were out of order!) This was at 4:00 a.m. when we were up getting ready to leave and the kids were still sleeping.

At a bar in St. Paul. Jery having his favorite beverage...beer.

These are the rest of Minneapolis...

We headed to Mall of America that first evening for some amusement...!
This is a picture of the roller coaster Josh and I went on...The scariest part was the going up the vertical climb.
Two peas in a pod.
BayLea loves roller coasters. This picture was us just before we got on the Fairly Odd Rollercoaster. She had a blast. The first thing out of her mouth when we got done was, "Can we go again!?"
Even Breccan loved the log ride. He enjoyed all the rides he was able to get on.


There we are on the roller coaster...
Boo! This was the ghost shooting scary ride. Jery and BayLea went on. We actually went back to Mall of America on the last day because our flight wasn't until 4:30 or so in the afternonn, and we rode the rides again. Breccan went on this one then.

More from Minneapolis

We really had a great time on our trip to both Minneapolis and Atlanta. These are the Minny trip pictures. My poor kids got to have kazillion pictures taken of them for my photography class...some turned out great, and some just so so. This one was in Josh's backyard. I rarely get a picture of both kids together with both looking at the camera. I chopped off feet, but I like it anyway.
We spent one afternoon down at a festival at the Stone Arch Bridge Park. There was crafts and food and music.
Breccan really doesn't like things to be too loud and so while we listened to the music, he spent some of the time with his fingers in his ears. He also covers his ears if he is nervous or unsure about something, like riding in a van to the airport in the EARLY morning...

That's my little man! I have a ton of pictures of him with all kinds of expressions on his face. This is his Dennis the Menace face...his nickname while there because being two, he is always into something! He managed to play with cousin Catie's fish until it died.
Just cuddling with daddy...
I just love that picture of BayLea holding flowers...the fact the flowers are in focus and she's out of focus...BayLea got to help make pasta at the kids section of the festival. Unfortunately, they didn't get to eat any...too many little hands on it!

I just like this picture of Josh.
And I LOVE LOVE LOVE these of Breccan and Josh. Breccan loves all the men in the family and it wasn't any different during his time with Uncle Josh.


They're just so darned cute.
On Father's Day we went for a brunch on the Grand Duchess boat down the river. What a fun day!


Of course, I took time to take pictures using the techniques I am learning from my class. Pictures, pictures, pictures.

Ahhhh, cheese curds. I LOVE THEM! These were at a little restaurant bar we stopped at after the river boat ride. Tasty tasty.

Minneapolis




Ill have to post more tomorrow because I have to resize my images...it's taking too long this way. So the first couple are from the Mall of America. And the bottom one is me with the picture I took of the Minneapolis skyline last year. Josh had it enlarged for the wall in his office and he even paid me!
