Our 4th of July holiday extended for the remainder of the week/end. I can't believe we head back to work tomorrow. Jay left this morning for a work trip, so really today it was back to reality. We had a great time off though and it sort of turned into a stay-cation for us!
The 4th we headed to a water park, since it was blasted hot outside. It was SO packed, but we had a good time anyway, as did Ella. It was her first trip to a big water park and she had a good time with us and even went down the lazy river! I didn't get any pictures of us though (boo!) Here's a pic from the morning trip to Caribou Coffee - Ella was obsessed with the Bear!
No fireworks for us - we watched them on tv. Maybe next year?!?!
We spent some time in Woodbury Thursday and found a new super yummy frozen yogurt spot.
Friday we headed to a beach in Carver County (yes, we put on MANY miles during this stay-cation). Again, it was a great way to cool off. Unbeknownst to us, it was another super hot day, even hotter than the 4th. The sand burned the bottom of my feet, and you couldn't lay on the beach, had to be in the water. Ella had blast playing in the sand.
We ended our Friday with family celebrating birthdays at Lion's Tap in Eden Prairie. I haven't been there since I was a kid! It was fun, and the cheeseburger was fantastic!
Saturday we were able to get out for a stroll on the trails and got a few things done outside. We headed back to Woodbury (we had our wedding rings polished, etc.). It was a busy and fun-filled time and now we'll look forward to our out-of-town vacation in August!
