Now that it's already Wednesday, I suppose a quick synopsis of my long weekend should suffice.
I'll tell you this: it was so great to be together as a whole family again. A weekend isn't long enough to be with loved ones when you have no idea what-so-ever when you'll see them again. It was great to just be together despite the miserable rainy weather that stopped us from doing any elaborate perusing of the city.
Naturally, we shopped a la Mall of America (camped out in H&M for awhile) & IKEA. We ate out at some amazing restaurants (all in an affordable price range). We hot tubbed. We lounged in the hotel bar. And we evaded getting pummelled by the 3 tornados that hit Northern Minneapolis while we were there...the tornado sirens and nasty clouds did enough damage to my nerves.
Here's a random collections of pictures from my weekend-

Keepin' it classy, keepin' it kewl. Great pics.
this is adorbz!!! I have always felt like minneapolis has so much more to discover than just the mall - and one day I plan to find it
i know right? it helps to have the type of family that loves to explore the artsier sections of cities rather than just the classic tourist attractions. seriously though, The Good Earth- a MUST!
