FBeads, MOA, and Hockey

> Last weekend the kids had fun playing with some beads Evan got for his birthday. You melt the beads together with an iron. Evan got an Olaf face paint at Culver's family night. A throwback photo of me and my brother with our dog Tina when I was about 5! Do you see Evan in my brother? The kids have a carnival this week and I was in charge of putting together the tailgating baskets for Evan's classroom. I was up late every night last week working on them. Hope they bring in a lot of money. Saturday we spent the day at Mall of America riding rides! The kids tried some new bigger rides and loved them. We had a great time! Today the boys cleaned off the ice and did some skating and playing hockey.

January fun

Saturday we went to our friend Athena's 5th birthday party at Skyrock farm in Hamel. She is in love with horses, so the boys got to ride a horse! I met a new BFF(the white horse) who didn't want me to stop petting her. She kept sticking hey head under the gate when I'd try to walk away. The owner of the farm also had a carousel and lots of carnival type collections(including a creepy clown)! After the party we dropped off the kids at grandma and grandmas and we went to Maynards for happy hour and then we walked to Al and Alma's for the power squadron Christmas party.
