My carousel beauties















I love this picture of Shauna and Sam because it sums up their experience of our trip.

Kaiya and Tori never realized they liked Dora so much until they met Dora's biggest fan...Rachel. We were soooo excited to meet Dora at the Mall of America.

Yes, the signs said not to climb on the statues, but really who can resist?

Minnesotta Trip

Amy took us to a zoo that was better than Boise's and free...not that we needed to see any more crazy monkeys...




I'm not sure Brittany knew what she was getting herself into when she agreed to go on this trip.

All of us at the Mall of America

Goodbye

Gracie was nice enough to share her ducky rain boots with Victoria. She loves to carry them around and say qak qak. She followed me around with them one day until I put them on her. She hasn't asked me to put them back on her since.

Tori's Hats

Tori loves "her" hats.

Some of my favorite people.

Tori said "Thank You" for the first time in sign language after opening her presents. Her and Sam had a ball.

Happy Birthday Toria!
