Fun in Minnesota with Aunt Katy (May 2013)

Before returning to Clear Lake, IA...Baxter and I enjoyed a week of adventures with The Campbells in Edina, Minnesota.

 

Family trip to the aquarium at the Mall of America.  What a place!!!

Memorial Day parade in Excelsior. 

Later Mom let Baxter play in the lake, but then still made him ride his bike home.  Had to stop one block later as the chaffing set in.  Luckily, Mom came prepared with extra (dry and sand-free) clothes.  Bax was a happy man again! 

Paint your own face (watch out!) at the Children's Museum. 

Baxter LOVED the manufacturing plant in the Children's Museum.  He wore a hard hat and enjoyed directing other children.  A born leader...or just bossy?! HaHa 

And ALSO at the Children's Museum, he liked being the mailman for the town. 

He would go to each store front and deliver/pick up the mail.  How cool!
