Party Bound






Today my Mom's Group and I took our kids to a new place in Lakeville called Play Bound. It has lots of those blow-up slides and climbing things for kids under 7 years old. Evan had a great time and I was amazed how nimble he has become in the past few months!

Centennial Lakes Park in Edina





I took the kids to feed the ducks and watch a magic/juggling show on Tuesday. Despite the 100's of bees flying around because of all the kids with food, it was really fun to see Evan enjoy the show so much!

Sate Fair 2007!






We went to the Minnesota State Fair last Sunday morning and it was wonderful! The weather was perfect and we went early enough that it wasn't too busy! Ally slept through most of the Fair but Evan loved all the junk food!

Underwater Adventures

Anniversary Trip






Our Anniversary was the 16th but we were able to have Scott's Dad and Stepmom take the kids for the weekend so we planned an overnight at Graves 601 Hotel in DT Minneapolis. For dinner we went to a fondue restaurant called The Melting Pot that was amazing!

More MOA pictures





Park at MOA with Grandma and Grandpa Shurson






We have been trying to go to Valleyfair for two weeks but the weather has not been cooperating so we decided to go to the Park at the Mall of America instead. We had a great time (Evan loved the rides!) and a really nice dinner after.

More park pictures




We went to a park on Saturday morning and got a few pictures.

More Thomas Pics





I know we already posted some pictures from our day with Thomas the Train but my friend Amanda got some really great pictures with her awesome camera so I thought I'd share them!

Ally on the move






Ally is truly 'mobile' now and she is getting in to everything!! Here she is getting into the broom closet, pulling out shoes and conspiring with Evan as to how to empty the contents of the diaper bag.....this winter should be interesting with two toddlers!
