Twins Win!

We ventured to Minneapolis with Lor an Alexa for a quick weekend. We left right from school and made great timing, arriving in time for pizza at Giradano's (not my idea), before returning to our rental in south Minneapolis. We stayed in the cutest little house near Cedar Lake, the neighborhood was so quaint and it it fit our group perfectly. 

Dave and I woke up on Saturday morning ready to get out and explore. We walked to this fabulous bakery called YUM!, but were surprised with a thunderstorm that wouldn't quit. Sully was in heaven, running and giggling thought the rain, Dave and the girls were mad, I was on a mission to get to the restaurant. A lovely lady picked Piper and I up for the final few blocks while Dave, Sully, and Greta ran the rest of the way. We arrived soaking wet and enjoyed a lovely breakfast while attempting to dry off. We had a nice walk home along the lake and returned for some much needed regrouping before the game. 

We had the MOST fun at the Twins game. We really wanted to bring Lor to an MLB game before he left town and we were happy to find an available weekend. We kept a close eye on the weather and it looked terrible, all we could do was hope for a break in the rain. Much to our surprise, that's exactly what we got, heavy clouds turned into blue sky and we had a Julie afternoon, just as I brought this to Dave's attention, the Twins scored a home run, the kids were delighted with firecrackers and celebration. We gave a nod to Julie, we knew she was right there with us... and then it happened again... another HOME RUN! More fanfare... we FEEL you Julie, how couldn't we!? The Twins won, Lor (all of us) had an incredible experience and we made our way to dinner after, which is when the clouds rolled in absolutely poured rain. 

We made our way back for a quick dip in the hot tub and then returned after brunch on Sunday. It was a great weekend and I want to go to Twins all the time now. ;)

Soaking wet, but smiling. 

A quick Earth Day clean up while we were there.
