Trip to MN

Back in June we took a trip out to MN. We visited tons of family and friends. We experienced many firsts---Lea's first airplane ride, Lea's meeting great grandparents for first time, Mommy and girls getting to see Daddy's first school, first home, and town he grew up as a little boy!!!!!

The girls did it---they were so good--traveling 2000 miles, connecting flights, long car rides....but tons of fun so I think that was their best reward of all....
