road trip

Last weekend we decided to go on a little road trip to celebrate our anniversary. :)

We didn't put a lot of thought into it, 

we quickly packed and headed out. It was exciting.

It felt so fun and cozy to head out in the snow. 

We drove over to see Little Raegan and Michelle & Grant!

We got to see Michelle's classroom and the kids got to do a clay project with her. When we got in the car Ethan said, "That was so Awesome!!" 

Then we headed to Minnesota to go to the Mall of America. 

Luke is really getting into legos, Ethan too, so the boys were in heaven when got to the lego store! 

We all were pretty giddy as we walked into the mall decorated in lights and silver trees for Christmas!

It was Adalyn and I's first time in the American Girl store together and Adalyn got a little outfit for her bitty baby. She was so proud to carry her bag around the mall. I kept asking if she wanted me to take it but she insisted on carrying it the rest of the evening. :)

The boys got to sit on Santa's lap 

(kind of nice to check that off the list early.) 

Adalyn wouldn't go near him again this year. :(

We stayed at a hotel near the mall and got in some swimming time. 

and some playing time. 

We spent some time with Grandma Pearl and Papa Bob on Sunday. 

It was so good to see them. 

Grandma hurt her arm so I didn't want to bother them with pictures. 

On the way home we stopped at cabellas. 

It was a fun weekend!
