Relaxing weekend in the Cities???






I took an adventure last weekend with me and the boys in the Cities. Not sure if it was real relaxing or not - but it was a good time. I went to stay with my sister in Lakeville. She has a super nice house and she was gracious enough to allow 3 boys in it. We kept very very busy so the boys were entertained quite well... and if they weren't... look out. Saturday we took them to the Children's Museum in St. Paul. It was a very nice place that had a ton of different exhibits for the boys to engage in. In the afternoon Kristal took us to her exercise gym (Lifetime Fitness) - which was amazing and we took the boys swimming. Payton is getting to be a strong swimmer and enjoyed the big water slides... Brooks won't be too far behind him as he wants to "swim" by himself. There is only one problem... he does NOT know how to swim. For supper we took the boys to Osaka - a Japanese Steakhouse. There were 8 of us at a table (4 of which we didn't know) and they cooked our food right in front of us... with the addition of entertainment while it was being prepared. The boys looked a little confused at first... but in the end really enjoyed it and thought it was pretty cool. The boys were definitely ready for bed when we got home... and so were we (Kristal and I). Thanks to Kristal for the awesome hospitality and for bringing us around the "Big City". We appreciate it more than you know and LOVE you very much.
