After a couple of hours of sleep we rallied with the help of some really delicious quiche and pastries and some playtime with the dogs, Cecile and Wally:
August the cat and Francis the husky:
We then went to the Mall of America. It actually felt smaller than I thought it would. Max and Chris bought bracelets and went nuts on the amusement park rides. Amanda, Emma, Rosie and I went shopping. This was the end result:
This was one of my favorite stops:
Also the shoe store where I bought silver loafers by Coach and Emma bought gold loafers (not by Coach)! They aren't as bad as they sound, I promise!
The dogs like to be stacked and carried:
A great nights sleep was had by all, Emma even slept until 10 which made her very happy. Now we need to get motivated and go see Minneapolis. Tomorrow we go to Michigan where we get to see the Kramers in Lansing and then the McHughs in New Buffalo before we head home on Monday.
Amanda looks great!
