Minnesota

Oh sure, you betcha. We had a great visit to Minnesota :)
Here's Ellie playing with some pretty cool tupperware at grandma's house before the big trip.

Candice and Ben enjoying some time with Ellie. The baby girl was pretty clingy to mom during the start of the week, but she warmed up to Uncle Ben and Aunt Candice after a few days... just before we had to leave. But I'm sure she'll be in a whole new phase of babyhood by the time we see them again. And she, of course, loves her aunts and uncles even when she's being a fusser :)
Here's Ellie and me in the food court at the Mall of America. Ellie's first major shopping trip was a lot of fun!
Grandma Jerrianne fed Ellie some lunch. She got veggie and fruit while we enjoyed some Johnny Rockets burgers. Yum!
Here's Ben, mom and I (with Ellie) at an Ethiopian restaurant in Minneapolis. It was super-delicious and a fun night out.

Candice and Ellie at the restaurant. Ellie was a big fan of chewing on the plastic tablecloth... mmm.

One afternoon we took Ellie to the science museum in St. Paul. She got to see her first Omnimax movie (called Arabia). She did great during the short film, switching between mom's and grandma's laps. What a big girl :)


And last, but not least, here's Ellie in the main room at City Hall where Ben and Candice will be married in October!
