The Lambchops & Jersey kids at Grand Harbor.
Our long, over-due family vacation finally came...and went too quickly for our liking. It kinda felt a bit funny to head north in the dead of winter to even colder temperatures and even more snow. Regardless, much fun was had by all thanks in large part to indoor water parks, legoland, shopping galore @ Mall of America and good friends that we met up with.
Of course there were cliches! Wouldn't seem right if there weren't any. I was down one day due to a stomach bug, but still managed to make it to the mall with baby Jake in tow, while Scott was super dad going on "all day ride bands" at Nickelodeon. The kids think he is the cooler dad for sure!
I have to say our kids traveled amazingly well on the six hour drive. A bigger vehicle that allows for separation of the two bigger kids was key, along with snacks and a dvd player. My mother reminds me how easy off we are compared to the 'old' days!
GPS mapped us the whole way there
Baby Jake was AWESOME! Although the poor lil' man sat in the car seat for too many hours for too many days in a row. The last 20 minutes on the car ride home he cried the whole way home. Needless to say it was great to be in our own beds...just in time to rest up to start back to our daily routines.
