Fun Family Weekend

This weekend we headed down to Blaine for a little get together at Steve's cousin's house. We drove down on Saturday afternoon to hangout with them and some other friends, stayed overnight, and then had a fun adventure today.

I didn't take any pictures last night, but was able to steal a few from a friend...some pictures of the kids.

Us girls

This morning was too hard to resist taking any pics with Olivia and Braxton waking up with the same pajamas on. So cute, because they're so close in age and almost the same size.

The first two pictures are funny because every time Olivia would look at the camera, Braxton would look at her. Then Braxton would look at the camera and Olivia would look back.



After leaving there house this morning, we decided to take the kids to the Children's Museum in St. Paul. We weren't sure how things would go, but both kids loved it and we stayed for a little over 2 hours. (prepare yourself for picture overload - I took a ton)

The first stop was the Uniform Shop where the kids could try on several different uniforms, including a policeman, fireman, nature worker, construction man, and veterinarian.


There was also a pretend chinese restaraunt, mail station, medical clinic, grocery store, metro bus, and dance studio.

My favorite part was when we put the little apron on Olivia in the grocery store, like she was a little produce worker.

There was an area called Water Works where the kids could play in different water contraptions with their hands.


Jack also got to pet a real snake, Olivia played with some extra large legos, and they both went down the slide a few times and danced on stage.
