MN twice as nice

One of these year's Brian will get in the picture too.

For the second year we went to Minnesota for Labor Day. We driveway camp at our former neighbor's, the Kuebelbeck's. The boys are able to have a fantastic time playing with the Kuebelbeck kids and their most awesome toys. We are able to catch-up with all our old neighbors and a few other local friends.

We took the kids to Como Park to check out the zoo and amusement park there. The boys really enjoyed the rides.

The highlight of the weekend was the neigborhood wiffleball game and barbeque. Ben took a turn at bat and ran to first base – and beyond, then decided the playground looked like more fun. Sports don't compare to the joy of digging in the sand with Ben. Neil on the other hand wanted to play ball the whole time. Luckly I was able to sideline him for batting practice while the older kids and adults got to play.

Truth be told, the downside of the trip was the 10 hour ride home (should have been 7), but the boys did it like a couple of real troopers.

Ben thought the fire engine ride was the best.

Ben, Neil & AJ driving a sports car that went surprisingly fast.

The boys also took a train ride.
