Minnesota Day 4 and 5- Mall of America

Since we were in no rush to get back to KC, the girls, mom and I stopped at the Mall of America in Minneapolis. We shopped most of the day Sunday, spent the night at the Marriott connected to the mall and then shopped away the next morning into afternoon before heading home.

The girls loved everything about this mall- the shopping, the amusement park within the mall, the fact that it was connected to our hotel; EVERYTHING!

It didn't take them long to get cozy at the hotel...

And then to the MALL!!!!

We rode some rides....

We saw the coolest piece of art  I have seen in a long time- it was just yarn hanging down. We loved seeing this every time we left the hotel. It was mesmorizing...

We stopped at the MOA birthday room for free popsicles to celebrate it's 25th birthday!

Then shopped til we dropped!

Got ready at the hotel to go to the executive suite for drinks and dinner.

And then had to run down to see what we won on our 5 mystery gift cards the hotel gave us at check in....

And then we had to find out what a free video game/Virtual reality experience entailed.....

And then we decided to do virtual reality hang gliding. All 4 of us did it and it was crazy! Everyone loved it even thought Abby said she didn't at the end.

Then we headed back to the hotel room to find bed time cookies and milk and a little surprise for our American Girl dolls.... Best hotel ever (we even got to keep the stuff!)

The we woke the next day to have breakfast in the lounge and hit up the mall once again!

Ashley got to send her American Girl (my old doll) to the doll hospital to get her limbs repaired.

Hung out with our Friends!!!

And then headed home with a new baby doll. So much fun!
