The morning after the Yankee's game we stopped by the Mall of America. We went to the Underwater Adventures. It was really neat!

Watch out Ashley!!

Jacob is trying to escape from his stroller.

There was a tank that had all the fish from Finding Nemo. We literally had to drag Jacob away. He kept yelling Dori! Dori! Dori!

They had the tank set up just like the one in the movie.Scene from Pirates of the Carribean

There was a moving floor that took you through the aquarium. It was awesome.

Look mom a Shark!

At the end of the aquarium the kids got to touch actual animals from the sea. Ashley loved the anemones and horseshoe crabslRyan and Ash with Jimmy Neutron
On the way out Ashley spotted this car and wanted a picture.
We all had a lot of fun on our (pig free) vacation!!!

Yankees Game

Yankees vs. Twins

For Father's Day we got daddy tickets to see the Yankee's play in MN. We had so much fun! It was a great game and we even stayed the entire 9 innings. Score was 4 to 3 - Yankees!!

Here's our view from our seats.

Rachael and Lon had an awesome fireworks display for us. Here's Ryan and Ashley taking a look at all of them as they were being loaded. It was a fantastic show!

Lon even chose a special firework for mom. It was called One Bad Mother-In-Law! I'm sure that was the best one :-)

Lon giving Sophie and Jake rides. Jake just loved following Lon around.

And here he is... TROUBLE. haha

Candi challenged Brian to a few games on the Wii. I don't think she got beat :-)

Thanks to Rach and Lon for having us over and for their great 4th of July party. It was so fun and great to see everyone. And the food!! It was wonderful.
