The boys loved the car ride. It was a total of 31 hours of driving. We stopped quite a few times for bathroom breaks, and leg stretching. They were very well behaved.
Scott and his brother Jonathan. They both like the cold, and would wear shorts and no jackets all the time, if they didn't have to set a good example for their sons.
We were lucky enough to get a little bit of snow while we were there. Yes, a rare picture of me on this blog. We had to borrow the snow brush and scraper to clean off our car.
The roads were terrible. If you don't have experience driving in this weather, I don't recommend it. It was rather enjoyable to see the look on people's faces when they saw our Florida license plate. After all, who in their right mind would leave Florida in winter to go to Minnesota?
Jameson and Teagen loved the snow. They were so excited when they saw it.
It is amazing what God has created. We were so blessed to see the beautiful snow covered world. Though we were wishing for warmer temperatures after the first day.
This is the ice that got pushed up on Mille Lacs Lake. It is rather thick, and very safe to walk, or drive on. I wish we had time to do a little ice fishing.
This is one of many beautiful sunsets we enjoyed.
Gavin put his hand on the glass of the fireplace, and got a big blister on his hand. We took him to the ER, and we have to keep his hand bandaged for a few more days.
Jameson and Teagen had a blast seeing their cousins and grandparents. They didn't mind getting a few presents too.
Gavin did a great job opening his first present.
Gavin loves daddy.
We all had a blast on our vacation. We are looking forward to visiting again. However, we are very happy to be back home in Florida.
