Weekend Fun!

Our weekend started out with a date in downtown Minneapolis with our friends Mikey and Laura. We went to see Halloween Alaska at 7th Street Entry which is next door to First Ave. Its a much smaller venue but was very fun! Halloween Alaska is a local band and the two acts before them werent bad. We got to visit and eat Snuffy's burgers with Sarah and Allison who came up to babysit Linnea. They also brought a tote full of the twins' old clothes! So Linnea has plenty of "new" outfits for now, this spring and summer! so exciting! Plus I had Friday off so got some stuff done around the house, skied and did some errands. There is still plenty to do but it was quite nice starting the weekend of like we did!

Saturday morning I took Linnea to another free music event at one of the libraries. Chris battled a migraine all weekend after the concert so he didnt have as pleasant of a weekend as me and Linnea. Hopefully he is better tomorrow! We let Chris rest more in the evening and went to visit GG. It had been a while since we visited last so it was nice to bring her some Arby's and catch up.
Linnea insisted she needed to go potty on gg's big potty so off came the pants and eventually the diaper too and we tried and tried. Tried being sitting on it for maybe 3 seconds with my help and saying "Im done" and going to the living room only to return to the "potty" a few minutes later. We may need to try this potty training thing soon...
And of course she got chocolate at GG's!My parents were also there near the end of our visit so it was fun to see them again too.

Sunday morning Linnea and I met up with Uncle Erik, Aunt Lisa and cousins Dylan and Jake at the Children's Museum. I got lucky on Friday and was able to check out a museum pass from the library. 2 people get in free and four more can get in for $2 each. Quite the deal since it is normally almost $9 to get it!
The kids had a great time driving the bus,

sitting in the Lego Castle throne,

building and knocking down towers,

examining the small legos,

wearing hard hats,

playing in the water and hand dryer

and bubbles!

Can't wait to get a pass or two again and bring the rest of the family!
Especially daddy!

I wish I could've gone. Hopefully I have my stomach issues resolved now :)
