Under Water World

 No furniture in the house yet and it's starting to get chilly out-what do you do? Go to Under water world! I was overly excited to drive to the mall of america. I don't think I have driven in to the cities yet. It was fun to walk around the mall, check out lego world and dive into the adventures of the water world. I can't wait to make my next trip to Ikea! I might have to do that trip with out the kids just to really soak it in. It's been nice to be around things. Anchorage was a good city but it just doesn't have any thing on the twin cities! :)

 Axel getting to touch some of the sea life. Sticky but not slimey he said. Just like the sea star we saw in Homer, AK but smaller.

 Abel watching the sea worms hide from him in the sand. He is such an animal kid. He loves seeing all types of animals-dogs, cats and now sea life. He loves waving to the neighbors cats and also is playing with our dog Jazz. Our bulldog is great with him and doesn't mind it when he tugs on her ears or tail. She is the best dog ever.

Look at that Mom!

Brian and I were lucky enough to have a date night this weekend. The boys went to grandma Ann's over night! It has been 2.5 years since our last over night date. I was a silly mom and called grandma a few times-worried for what ever reason. Grandma reassured me all was okay and reminded me to have a nice time. We went to my good friend Kiersten's house-cooked up some halibut and drank a little wine. It was a great night. I have to say one more time that it's really nice being around family and having the chance to have some one to watch the kids. Axel is already planning his next sleep over at grandma's. He loves going there!
Furniture is supposed to be here on Tuesday. Keep your fingers crossed that it shows up. I can't wait to sit on my couch. A friend of mine introduced me to Megashare-a site where you can watch shows and movies online for free-so I have ben able to keep up on my few shows that I love to watch. It's been really great. All for now....
