For some reason kids just love staying in hotels.

We met my parents in Park Rapids so they could take the dogs for a weeks vacation up north while we went to Peter's Resort with Damon's family. We decided to spend the night in Park Rapids to make a much shorter time in the car for the boys. We had lots of fun staying at a hotel (The C'Mon INN - cheesy name but it was actualy a pretty nice place) overnight. We had the pool all to ourselves and the boys loved it.

Afternoon Adventure

Damon had to work all day so when Mikko woke up from his nap I decided to take the boys to the Zoo again for some afternoon fun. It is so nice having the membership so you don't feel like you have to do everything while you are there. Today we pretty much just concentrated on the play areas. David and Mikko played in the Mammoth excavation for a really long time. Lots of dirt is all they need!
Climber


We also took the Tractor Ride to the farm. Mikko thought it was pretty fun.

Mikko finished his Little Gym class today and it was Show Week. Here he is getting his medal.
Bubble Time is his favorite
Mr. Silly

David came along to watch Mikko's Show. He wanted to take pictures with the camera.

Loved getting my camera back from him and seeing this lovely photo.





Here is a video of the award ceremony.


Sorry it is upside down.


David was very proud to go up with Mikko to get his medal.

Fun night out

I got to spend Friday night with Britta! We went to the Twins game and stayed overnight at the Radisson. We had a blast even though the game sucked.

Day in the backyard!

Snack-Time - Poolside!
Dare Devil David


Riding Thomas the Train


Mr. Wild Hair


David loved "Raining On Mikko" - luckily Mikko didn't mind.




We turned the Roller Coaster into a Water Coaster - David thought it was the best idea ever!



Angie made Cherry Kool-Aid for the boys. They were like little hummingbirds flocking to her - pretty cute.


What a nice big brother.


Back to the Pool!


We spent a wonderful afternoon in the backyard. We got a new pool that is really big - we'll spend a fortune on our water bill this summer I think. The boys had so much fun all afternoon - I think they'll sleep well tonight. What fun to see them enjoy a beautiful summer day!
