Oh how Coop loves a good sleepover! He loves pulling out the couch sleeper and watching movies late into the night after everyone else has gone to bed with his friends!

We left Cass Lake and Mike & Kari and their family early this morning. We were so happy to be able to spend time with great friends that we miss and love dearly. Thank you so much Mike and Kari! we had a fabulous time and can't wait to see you all again soon we hope! We drove to Minneapolis and spent the day at the Mall of America! The kids had a great time at Lego Land and the amusement park!

We went to some friends of Mike and Kari's tonight for dinner and a little four wheeling! D&T are absolute gems and we can understand why Mike and Kari love them! All the kiddos loved riding the four wheelers, but Coop was a natural! After getting comfortable he showed a very aggressive driving style and we could see the need for speed in his eye! Yikes!
