For the second half of our Christmas vacation we went to Minnesota sans the whiny cat. We got to see the store where Emily works and the hospital where Frank works. Both were covered with tons of snow :) Em and Frank were nice enough to make Alex and I an "imagination room" by stringing curtains to section off part of the study. We had an air mattress, tons of covers, and a dog who liked to steal the covers! We rode roller coasters in the Mall of America, went tubing on a giant hill, and ate at lots of yummy restaurants. It was very nice to see all of the Scheers/Schneiders! Hopefully we will see them again soon in a place where the wind chill is not -30 degrees!
All of the snow outside of Em and Frank's place! The road was frozen over with ice!!
When we got there we were surprised with a new camera for Alex and a Flip Video Camera for me :)
McNally slept at the end of our air mattress one night and kept stealing the covers!
Frank at the neat bar/restaurant near their house.

Alex and his Dad went cross country skiing.
Alex and I both did a lot of fun reading this vacation to make up for all of the textbooks we are normally forced to read!
So much fun! Love you!
