So last week we decided to take a mini vacation and go to "the cities" as everyone up here calls it. We went to the Minnesota state fair and had a blast! We were very lucky to not get rained on and had a nice little overcast that kept us from the heat wave we were expecting.
Of course Kane and kohen had a great time at the fair too! They got to pretend to be farmers and drive little tractors and milk a cow. Of course I have tons of pictures from our little trip but unfortunately my computer is acting up again and I am unable to upload them just yet. Once I get them uploaded I will be sure to post! Now back to the fair, the boys enjoyed the parade and the cow show as well. There isn't very much that my boys don't enjoy and I am very lucky for that. It was fun for us to see and try so many things that we had actually seen on the travel channel. We also got to see Hot Chelle Rae (not sure if I spelled that right). We didn't even realize who they were until we noticed all the 13 year old girls screaming for them. Kael and I got to thinking about all of the upcoming stars we have seen by visiting fairs and festivals. We've seen Chris Young, Joe Nichols, Diamond Rio, Julie Roberts, and once we ran into Cupid (ya know, the Cupid shuffle?) at a gas station.
Anyways, the next day we were going to go to Ikea and the Mall of America once again but after spending all of our time at Ikea we decided to head home. Let me just say that I have fallen in love with Ikea!! The store was awesome! I found so many good deals and really cute things for such a reasonable price although we couldn't find a new living room set we are crazy about. Kael is obviously not big on shopping but really enjoyed the store, considering we spent a good 2 hours in there. So I would definitely recommend checking out Ikea if you're looking for something modern and reasonably priced!
That's one of the greatest things about living in Minnesota...every time Kael is off of work it's almost like a vacation for us. We are always finding something new to do!
