Grandpa and Grandma VG joined us in our room that could sleep 6
and we enjoyed a brought-along breakfast again together.
We spent the morning doing some of the daily activities
together at the lodge.
Wynia and Kaisand cousins with their wolf craft
It was fun to have some of us stay together!
At 11:00 we drove over across the street to the Mall of America
and hopped on the Blue Line metro train to take us to downtown Minneapolis
for the baseball game at Target Field!
It was their first time on a REAL train!
Waiting at Target Field to get tickets
We made it to the Twins vs. Rays game!
(hoping to see cousin Matt pitch!)
We got seats in the family section IN THE SHADE!
Thank goodness since it was 90 degrees and HOT!
Matt got Grandpa and Grandma tickets behind home plate
and after the 4th inning, the usher allowed all of us to go down, too!
It was closer, but we didn't have the breeze and it was quite warm.
We surprised Grandma with a belated 60th birthday announcement
that we paid to have put up on the BIG SCREEN!
It rolled once during the 5th inning and once during the 6th!
We met Matt's wife, Jill, at the game and she joined us for awhile.
The game was four hours long and we didn't get to see Matt pitch
BUT, we did wait for him after the game to say HI!
We rode the train back and made reservations for all 15 of us
for supper at TGIFridays. (Josh, Jesscia, and Weston came too!)
We ended the evening going to bed since we were whooped!
