Mall of America Legoland

Here are a few of the Lego things that were built there at the Mall of America. They also sold legos and had an area for the kids to play, and make cars and race them on a little track that timed them. Sierra played and played there for about 2 hours and loved every minute of it, and made a little car and raced it too. It even won several times. We had a blast there and loved every minute of it.

Yoda Minnesota

Sierra is always talking about Hannah Montana, in fact she is going to dress up as Hannah Montana for Halloween. My brother Marty was teasing Sierra telling her "What about Yoda Minnesota". When we were at the Mall of America in Minneapolis, Minnesota, we in fact saw "Yoda Minnesota" and we had to take a photo of it. So here is my Brother Marty and Sierra with "Yoda Minnesota".

Cesar Millan AKA " The Dog Whisperer"

Cesar Millan was at the Mall of America in Minneapolis, MN
Cesar was doing a book signing the day we went to the mall.
He looks like a pretty personable person too.




We just happend to be passing through the mall to take the Light Rail to Downtown Minneapolis. The day before this I spent 10 hours at the Mall of America, but the day we just quickly passed through was the day Ceasar was there. We did not stand in line to get his autograph but we did get a close look at him and took these few photos. He looks like he is pretty nice, and cute too.

Sierra putting up some of the Halloween Decorations

Sierra with the Crime Scene-Do not cross tape we put on the garages
Sierra and Tigger the oh so scary Dracula blow up light
We got a new spider web light and a ghost with boo on it for the windows
We had the pumpkin and ghost from last year lights for the front windows too.




Sierra was so excited to decorate so we put up a few things today, and she was in heaven doing it. We have some more inside stuff to put up and I have some pumpkin lights for the front of the flower bed that stake into the ground. Sierra will be in heaven once we finish decorating.

ITS THE GREAT PUMPKIN CHARLIE BROWN

Here is Sierra in the middle of the field scouting around for the GREAT PUMPKIN

Here is the photo opportunity at the pumpkin patch with the tractor and pumpkins
Sierra loves to pose and this is a great photo opportunity.
Hmmmm..........I love this place!!!!
Look at the great view of the mountains against those pumpkins in the pumpkin patch. We even have a little snow already. Although we were wearing shorts while we were hunting for the pumpkins.

Sierra had a blast choosing her pumpkins, and we had a blast running around that field. This field is in town and not to far from our house. It has a great view of the snow capped mountains too.

Pumpkin Hunting at the PUMPKIN PATCH

I know I am going to find the Perfect Pumpkins to Carve.
Oh my goodness there are so many to choose from!
Looks like Sierra found a few keepers.
Whew, this was hard work and now its dark and here are the finalists.




Sierra looked and looked and looked for the perfect pumpkins to carve. There were thousands to choose from and we looked high and low for the perfect ones. Pumpkins with handles, pumkins that were round, pumpkins that were not blemished. We searched high and low and finally got them placed into the wheelbarrow to take them home. Now Sierra can hardly wait to carve them.
