Minnesota Girls Weekend!

We (Elisa, Jayme, Sara and myself) basically the coolest Mom's ever....took the older girls to a weekend away in Minnesota...to do some shopping, rides, and the AG store! It has been something we have been talking talking and talking about....and finally picked a weekend and made it happen! 

We got the girls out of school about 1 and headed North!  We stayed at the Raddison Blu...so perfect...no other way to do it...connected to the hotel and walked right into the rides! Where my awesome sister-in-law Bridget got us 1/2 price wrist bands!

We got up there about 5 and headed right to the pool! 

Getting ready to jump in...is Laynee upset?

NO! Just waiting for Lindsay!


Jump! KP is kind of hiding!

But there she is! 

The aftermath!

The pool was awesome....and we were basically the only ones there!

Happy Girls!

KP practicing her backstroke...she has dreams of swim team this summer...which makes me happy AND seems a little nuts to add something to are already busy schedule!

We had adjoining rooms...we let the girls have the suite...next year the moms are getting the suite...none the less it was the perfect set up! 

Kreighton and Lindsay getting ready to head out to the mall!

The girls heading to the mall!

At the Mall....KP is the youngest and the shortest....she is wearing her Saige dress she got when she bought Saige...Saige is retired so she got lots of comments on the dress! 

At the store...decided what hair style they wanted for the dolls...so cool! 

Kreighton saved her money and gift cards to buy a new doll...and she decided on Kitt...I was excited for her and proud of her saving her money!

Happy Girls at the store!

Eating at the American Girl Doll Store...it was fun! They even have little seats for the dolls!

Happy Girl with Saige and Kitt!

Kreighton and Clara....Bridget and Clara joined us for lunch!

And another bonus of just taking the "Big Girls" is that they could ride rides by themselves....AND the Moms could stop for a drink! 

And we did think about our boys at home....there were turtles there...so we of course were cool moms and got our pictures taken with them!

Turtle Hug!

AND we let the girls go Zip-Lining...it was pretty cool! And they all 6 did it...I thought maybe one would chicken out!

KP ready to go!

And it was Miss Laynee's Birthday....

All 6....such lucky girls!

In case you were wondering what Fred and the boys were up to....Fred (the best Dad ever) set up the tent and him and the boys slept out there....Fred said they totally loved it! 

And there is really no caption needed for this one....the girls were wiped!


A tradition we have to keep up!
