Mall of America

Today we went to the Mall of America.  We decided it was something different from our normal weekend routine and we had a great time!

Ryan took Madelyn on a train ride.  She wasn't so sure about it on her 1st ride.  She had her head in Ryan's lap most of the ride.

Staying close to daddy

Then we decided to have lunch.  While we were eating we saw Shari & Max so we had lunch with them and hung out for awhile.  We always have a blast with them!  It was such a surprise to see them!  Neither of us had been to the MOA for years and we both show up on the same day and we run into each other.

After we ate, Madelyn wanted to go on the "choo choo" one more time.  Ryan said she liked it much better the 2nd time.  I was feeding Jack so I didn't get to see her this time but she kept talking about the "choo choo" for the rest of the day!    

On her 2nd ride - much more independent!

Had to get a picture with Dora
