Today, we had
breakfast and were all able to get up and out of the house earlier than the
last few days. Our plan today was Mall of America, basically Nickelodeon
Universe, for lots of rides and fun. A few months ago, when we won Brothers of
the Sun tour tickets, part of the prize pack was two unlimited ride wristbands
for the park, so the girls were all set. Christian and I are able to ride all
of the smaller rides with them for free, and he doesn’t like real rides, so I
just bought a few points to go on a couple rides with Dawn. In the end, we only
ended up going on two adult rollercoasters together, BOO, but it was still fun
though. The girls had a blast, and Amelia was able to go on most of the rides
as well this time. I took Olivia down the Log Chute for the first time. She
loved the ride itself, but was creeped out by the giant mechanical figures
throughout the ride, so that kind of ruined it for her. We were able to meet
TONS of characters today….Jimmy Neutron, Kai Lan, Dora and Boots, Spongebob and
Patrick. YAY, great day to be there, that’s for sure! We grabbed some lunch in
the food court, went on a few more rides, and then had to head out. Tonight
Dawn is taking our family pictures, so we had to get the girls down for their
naps. Our friends stayed and finished up their riding while the girls napped
and Christian and I got ready.
As soon as they got
home, we were off with Dawn for picture time. We headed to Minneapolis, to
Nicollet Island for our pictures, and had a blast doing them. I haven’t seen
all of them, but she let me peek at a few and they were SUPER cute. I can’t
wait until she gets them edited and I can see all of them. The girls were
really receptive to her, and she did such a great job. YAY, pictures, done!
It was around 9:00
when we got back to the truck and started on our way home. All of her family
was passed out for the night when we finally arrived home, so we ate a quick
dinner, put the girls to bed, and really weren’t far behind. Can’t wait for
another exciting day tomorrow, though it is technically our last day together.
That thought, makes me want to cry. Ugh, goodbye sucks!
