WOW, it's been a busy week, and today is my first day of just hanging out and relaxing.

Friday June 29th, I went to the Joan Jett and Heart concert up at Mystic Lake Casino.
Sat, Sun, and Mon I think were spent hanging out with my brother and his family who were up from Georgia. I think that's all I did. But that includes 3 kids under the age of 6, so it's also a busy hanging out.
Tuesday I went to take a tour of Mystery Cave with my brother and his oldest, Mary.
Wednesday of course was filled with July 4th activities. Which included Myself, My Parents, My older brother and his wife, Their oldest and her husband and daughter, Their second and her husband and son, and my Younger brother and his wife and three kids. 16 people and temps hovering around 100F.
Thursday we were going to go to the Minnesota Zoo, but my brother decided he didn't want to have three little kids out in near 100F temps. So instead we went up to the Mall of America.
Friday we, myself, my younger brother and his family, and my other SIL and her second daughter and her son, and her oldest's daughter were going to go to the Children's Museum in St. Paul. We were going to meet up at the museum. I played GPS for my younger brother. Well, let's just say, I need a new satellite connection. LOL... I directed us to the Science Museum in St. Paul instead. I thought it was the Children's Science Museum. Wrong... So we toured the Science Museum, and the other's toured the Children's Museum. :p
Saturday, my younger brother's last day up here, just he and myself went back to Mystery Cave to take a different tour. This one was pretty cool too. It was in a different section of the cave and there was no lighting in the cave. We just carried flashlights.
So today I am just relaxing, and making plans for the last couple of days of my vacation.
Monday I think I might go back up to the Mall of America and walk around a little more relaxed, aka not having 3 little kids to keep track of. Tuesday I am thinking I might go up to the Minnesota Zoo. The last time I was up there was a year ago for the Go Go's concert and it was a thunderstorm.
Then I will have Wednesday for one final day of relaxing before going back to work Thursday night. BLAH.........

Hot cocao floats? Sounds tempting.
Reminds me of the menu at the DQ the other day. They have Frozen Hot Chocolate. I am curious as to what that includes, but I didn't ask. lol.....

What's "frozen hot chocolate"?

Date: 2012-07-09 01:29 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] thespian15.livejournal.com
Good question. :p
On the day that we went up to the Mall I tried the ChocoCherry Blizzard at DQ. Not impressed. Too much choco, not enough cherry, and too runny. :p

I feel like the odd one out because I don't like cherry anything. ...and strawberry twizlers don't taste like strawberry! :(

Sounds like you had a busy week, omgoodness!! I like spending time with my family, but it can be a little over whelming at times, when we all get together.

PICS....??

I hear you on the getting together. 5 little kids is a LOT, and after my niece has her twins? EEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :p
I will hopefully some day get some pictures up. I have them downloaded, and I have been trying to get them onto photobucket, but it's being a PIA site. Keeps freezing my computer. ugh.....

That many kids is hard for anyone (excpet me of course, but Im used to being surrounded by kids)....but especially for someone who isnt used to being around lots of kids.

Good Luck with photobucket!!

Seriously impressed - you've been crazy busy - welcome to my life - I love it!!!!
Sounds like fun...don't know if I could do the cave thing though, claustrophobic...but I could definitely do the Mall of America!

Have fun at the Zoo!
