We made it!

We made it to Minneapolis, MN on December 28th. The boys are havning a wonderful time getting reacquatined with their cousins. They pretty much have been together since we got here. They've spent 2 out of the 3 nights together so far...

The first picture is of Bennett, he is the youngest of my cousin Penny's kids. But he has no problem keeping up with the big kids.















This is Bennett at Lego Land in the Mall of America!

Here are a few more pictures from The Badlands....the land that God forgot. It was an amazing sight...we all enjoyed our adventures today.

We arrived in Mitchell, SD...not on purpose, but got really tired. We were going to try to make it to Sioux Falls, SD, but saw that this Holiday Inn Espress had a water slide, so we HAD to stop. It was time anyway...we had a fun, but long day!

We got out of Wall Drug, SD as quickly as possible before the sun set. We had 1 hour before the sun was gone. We saw buffalo, rams, and a ton of deer. The colors were amazing because of the setting sun. Just wish we had a little more time.
