MOA to YMCA

I love to write, but right now all I want to do is nothing...
I want to drink a glass of wine, maybe 3 glasses of wine and watch Grey's...
But, I have this urge in me to document...
I guess I am meant for nurse work, because that is a big part in what they do...

We spent an nice night away, filled with a ton of adventure! We left the house yesterday at 0900 and we arrived at Auntie Michelle's house one hour later. She hopped in our car and we headed South towards the Mall of America. Hadley was excited! We arrived there at 1100 and we decided to go to the aquarium first. It was amazing! We loved all the sea life, especially the jellyfish and the sharks swimming over our heads. Next we had lunch at the Rainforest Cafe 1300, it was delicious and the girls were well behaved and even ate their lunch. Afterwards, we shopped a little and then it was time for rides.

Ride Time 1700:
Hadley, Ellie and I rode on the Azul Train. Then we all went for a ride on the carousel. Then we let Hadley ride on the Blue's Clue's ride by herself as well as the Semi Truck ride. In between it all the girls enjoyed some popcorn and I just marveled at their joy! Lastly, we (all three) rode on the Air Balloon ride, it was 6 points total, which is what we had left and Hadley, Ellie and I took off on a hot balloon ride under our red and white balloon. Hadley brought her froggy with and we all enjoyed the best and last ride of the night.

After we were done we went to one last store and escaped the MOA to find 70 plus degree weather... CRAZY!

Next we swiftly drove home to have some snacks and call it a night... a thunderstorm rolled in aka weather and the girls and I cuddled to say the least in Aunties bed for the night.

Then Sunday morning, Hadley got her first haircut at Great Clips, just a trim and we quickly shopped at Albertville before going swimming at the YMCA. While at the Y Hadley did great swimming on her own with a life vest on and Ellie was content just playing in the water. I was so proud of them both, little swimmers they are!

It was a great weekend and I apologize for the lack of pictures... my camera is broken!
