I will give thanks to Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Thy works, and my soul knows it very well. Psalm 139:14

A Weekend Away

This weekend we took a little mini family vacation.  The highlights were the zoo and the Twins game.  I think our favorite part of the zoo was the Grizzly Bears.  When we've seen them in the past they have been pretty low key.  That was not the case this time.  One was swimming past the window where we were standing when the other bear entered the water.  They began to wrestle and fight like crazy.  It was so cool....the kids just loved it!




Jillian enjoyed watching the fish that were swimming with the bears too.


One of Nathan's favorite parts was the tractor ride down to the farm.  He was extremely excited about this!




It was a great day at the zoo.  The next day we left the younger kids behind and headed to the Twins game.  It was an absolutely beautiful day and oddly enough we saw a great game!  The Twins haven't been playing so well lately, but this day they won 11-4!  There was lots of excitement with these two!


Here they are trying to get autographs before the game.  Unfortunately we didn't get any this time.


T.C. was hanging out behind our seats so we got a quick shot...


We had a great time, but mostly it was just nice to get away as a family and spend some quality time together.  A fantastic way to spend one of our last weekends of summer.
