A short trip away from Lincoln was a surprise for our kids.  Our foster kiddo got to go home, and that was an experience.  I am so glad we did it for so many reasons, mostly I pray we made a difference in his life, because he made a difference in our life.

So we needed a refresher and a few moments to just enjoy each other.  So we went to Minnesota.  Hung out at the mall.

We started with breakfast with grandma and grandpa and were thankful they watched our dog.
 Then had dinner at the Mall of America.

 We had to have desert.

 Isaiah had to ride every rollercoaster.


 Denali stuck with the calmer rides.

 We played some golf


 Quinn's favorite part by far was riding the metro.


















 happened upon the largest candy store in Minnesota.



 On the way home we stopped by family graves and cleaned them up and said some prayers.



Such a great reset for the summer!
Super quick but full of fun and love!
These years are flying by, and I am trying so hard to teach my kids
how to be good people while also giving them great experiences!
We are off to camp this week, and have a chat with some senators,
so more to come!
Happy Summer!
