Fargo

Well, we made it through our little getaway to Fargo this week. The car ride up was a breeze and had Mom and Dad feeling pretty confident. We had a fantastic hotel room with a separate living room so babies could sleep undisturbed. The baby pool at the hotel was 6 inches deep at the shallow end and only a foot and a half at its deepest....we put the babies in some floaties just in case they didn't stay upright and everyone had a blast in the pool. Daddy was able to come down with us the first time so we even managed to snap a couple pictures!
Kennedy is on the left and Madison is on the right....

As you can see, the first swimming experience completely wiped out Madison and Kennedy!
The second day, Daddy was in meetings from 7am to 9pm so mom loaded us up and we went to explore a little zoo they have up there. It was a gorgeous day and the zoo was just the right size for us to run around and see everything without exhausting any of us.
My most favorite part was the petting zoo with the baby goats.
And I liked this turtle (I think he liked me too).
But I did NOT like these cockroaches....who really wants to see that exhibit anyway????
It warmed up a bit in the afternoon so we headed indoors to the mall and played in this really neat dinosaur playground...
And, once again, ended the day with a dip in the swimming pool and some completely wiped out kiddos!
We are glad to be home and probably won't venture out on another excursion like that until we forget how much work it was and only remember how much fun we had!

Seriously, Karen, you never cease to amaze me through all of this. I meant to give you a shout-out on Mother's Day to congratulate you on getting through every day, day by day. Your kids look so happy...and of course, a great daddy helps, too! Can't wait to see more!!
