Brrr...someone forgot to tell Minnesota that it is June. We left Thursday evening and got back on Tuesday afternoon from our trip to see Travis's mom. The weather was cold and rainy the whole time we were there. In the 50's. I borrowed a sweatshirt from Travis's mom and wore it for 3 days. We went to the Mall of America Saturday. There is an amusement park in the middle of the mall, however, Eston wasn't big enough to ride any of the rides. I thought surely there would be some smaller kid rides. Maybe next year. He did get to see a big statue of Dora and Boots that we took our picture by. And G'ma bought him a Dora bus - like a hotwheel car. It's the only Dora thing Travis would let her buy since Dora is kinda "girly" he said. The next day, we it quit raining long enough to go to the Minnesota zoo. We walked around with sweatshirts and jackets on looking at the animals. Travis and I enjoyed the animals more than Eston did though. He really didn't seem to care too much. He'd look at them when we pointed them out and then would keep on walking or push his stroller.


Here is a picture of Eston and Travis swimming at the hotel pool in Kansas City. We stopped there on the way up and back to break the trip up for Eston. However, he was a pretty good car rider for a 12 hour trip one way. He watched videos and we looked for big trucks.
