In May, Jason arranged a trip to the Metrodome to see the Yankees and Twins play. Jayden is a Yankees fan, and Cole is a Twin's fan. This was the first professional game for the boys!
Cole watches intensely! You'll find out who wins the game later!

Jayden, Jerry, & I arrived a few hours before Tiff & Jason, so met Chad for lunch.

That night, we met Chad & Jenny at the Independent, one of their favorite places to eat.

Jayden loves his Auntie Jenny!

Sisters-in-law Jenny & Tiffany

A few hours later, Sherry, Nathan, Jeni, Cole, & Claire arrived at Chad & Jenny's home.

It was raining that night, so we moved under the deck for shelter. The rain didn't damper our spirits!

Claire says, "There's room for you too, Mommy!"

Jason, do you really think the Twins have a chance at winning tomorrow?

Later, the rain stopped, so we were able to have a campfire in Chad's huge backyard.

Sister & brother share special time together.

Pre-game fun the day of the big game!

Nathan's good friends Garth & Chris met him a few hours before the game.

Chad is amused by the Twins vs. Yankee talk between Jayden & Cole.

Hey Cole! This is a neat picture of Joe Mauer. You should buy it! Cole didn't, Jayden did, and at Christmas, Jayden wrapped it up, and gave it to Cole. What a heart!

Nathan, Jeni, & Cole are ready to cheer on the Twins!

The gang, although divided in team support, pose for a unified picture!

The boys are ready to catch a ball.

Claire hopes to stay awake during the long game.

Tiff & Jason, two of the Yankee fans!

The game begins!

Yes, the Yankees won! Jason gives Jayden a "High five".

Cole says, "Jayden there are still 2 more games this week-end!"

Before the game, we had to make a stop at the Mall of America. Lunch at McDonalds comes first.

What ride should we go on first, Cole?

The log ride is always great fun, and a good way to cool off!

Jason & Jayden ride through the Haunted House.

A stroll on the Midway.

Up, up, and away!

I'd really like to go see the Underwater Sea Adventure next!

Grandma, Grandpa, & Jayden.

Jason, Tiff, & Jayden love the Mall of America.

It's your turn to go on the Log ride, Jason!

I really think I'm too big for this ride! Why'd you tell me to go?

Cole says, I'm only on this ride for sister Claire!

After everyone left, Jenny, Chad, & I visited another park. (Can't remember the name).

Rustic and beautiful!



The beach was also beautiful! Too bad we didn't bring our suits!


After all that walking, we enjoyed fire on the deck at Chad & Jenny's.

The next day, we did a little shopping, & while Jenny & I shopped, Chad & Jerry found a way to relax.

Chad, you don't need ONE more guitar! He loves his music. Thanks for the great time!
