Fun night at the MOA!

We made the trek up to the Twin Cities yesterday!! I have never seen so much snow! The sun was shining and the roads were completely clear but everything else was covered in snow! It was a nice and relaxing ride.

Our hotel is basically in the parking lot of the mall! We got checked in and headed there immediately!


I was so excited and overwhelmed when we first got there! That place is seriously HUGE!


We already decided when we have kids and they are old enough to enjoy, this we will be coming back! It's like a kid's paradise!

We ate Sbarro pizza and enjoyed watching all the rides during dinner!

This was the coolest lego land exhibit! We would have spent hours at this when my brother was younger!



The first store we went to was the Apple store! We didn't buy anything but it was fun to look even though most electronics that we own are Apple. ha! (2 iphones, 2 ipods, macbook)
After leaving Apple, we continued walking and and then I saw this....
I was so HAPPY!!! Matt chose to sit on a bench outside the store, while I shopped and shopped! This is one store I really wish Arkansas had! Also I loved getting to go to...
After walking around the mall for a few hours, ( we probably only saw half of it) we went to the theatre and saw Avatar in 3d!



It was so good!! I really enjoyed the movie and the colors and seeing it in 3d was really cool. My only complaint was wearing the 3d glasses made my head hurt so bad!! It was so late when we got out the cabs and the shuttle busses to the hotels were long gone. So we walked back to the hotel in the freezing cold! It was such a fun night to end the long week of being at the Mayo clinic!

Oh, how I miss the Twin Cities! The hubby and I went to college in Minneapolis. And the MOA is ridiculously huge! When we lived there, we rarely went only because it was too big if you only wanted to go to a few stores!
