We had another great weekend...this time we headed up to the cities! We met Jason's mom and dad, his brother Justin, Justin's girlfriend Holli, and their daughter MacKenzie up there for a fun weekend at the MOA and a Twin's game!
We left home at 8 a.m. on Sat. so that we would have time to stop at the Owatonna Outlet mall first. We spent about 1 1/2 hrs. there. We met up with everyone at 1 p.m. at the hotel. It was a great hotel right across from the front entrance of the MOA. We checked in, got situated, and then headed to the MOA around 1:30! We had lunch,
shopped, went on rides, 
ate supper, and then headed back to the hotel. None of us had any idea we wouldn't walk back until 9:30 p.m. We had been there for 8 hours! We then went swimming...as the kids could swim until 11 p.m. We went back to the rooms a little before 11 p.m. It took Madison a minute to get to sleep. She had only slept a 1/2 hour all day. She was shot! We visited for a little while before all heading to bed by midnight! What a day!Sun. we got up, had a great breakfast at the hotel, packed our stuff and drove over to the MOA to park. We decided to ride the lite rail to the game. What an inexpensive and fun way to travel + we didn't have to fight the traffic! 
We got to the game at 11:15...so we had lots of time to walk around outside,
We got to the game at 11:15...so we had lots of time to walk around outside, 
get into the dome, find our seats, 
and get food (the girls had to have a frozen icee...and boy do they share well!)
before the game started at 1 p.m. The game was great - they won 8-0 against the Oakland A's (it was funny...Jason and I didn't even know who they were playing until on our way to the game...that's what big baseball fans we are!) 
Madison was so tired from the day before...she slept through 2 hours of the game on my lap. 
We left in the top of the 9th inning (to beat the crowd), got back on the lite rail, and made it back to the MOA safely around 4:30. We said our goodbye's and headed home. We met up with my sister in Fairbault for a quick supper on our way home...she was coming from Wgtn, stopped in Owatonna at Target, and then got home at 9:30 p.m. Whew! What a busy weekend! But, lots of fun! Thanks again to Mary and Darwin!
