The Zs in SD: Spring?

The calendar says it's spring. Around the ides of March, it was beautiful around here, 70 degrees and sunny. Today the high was 43 degrees and there's a chance of snow Monday night. Gotta love South Dakota!
Not a whole lot to report. The boys start soccer this week. I'll actually be coaching Jon's team, not sure why I agreed to do that, but it should be interesting. Today the guys and I went to Sioux City and saw Monsters vs. Aliens. Jon was really excited to get to see a movie, "The first day anyone can see it!" We had a really nice time. Joey and Garret shared a seat for most of the movie.
I'm finally posting pictures from our trip to Minneapolis a couple weeks ago. We had a really nice time with Angela, Matt, and Grant. We stopped at Berke's house on the way back, which was a lot of fun. I didn't think to get the camera out though, so no photographical evidence exists.

Grant playing with his Momma (he has chocolate on his tooth)

Grant wasn't always so sure about his crazy Aunt Gina,
but he and the guys got along well.

Jon and Joey shopping at Ikea.
Among other things, we bought a $3 lamp.
The bulb cost $8.

We also went to the Mall of America.
I finally caved and let the boys ride some rides.
I thought Joey would love this ride because he was a huge
Wonderpets fan. He was not all that impressed.

We went back to the zoo, always fun.
I honestly put this picture in because it's so
rare Jim or I show up on the blog.
Yes, dear, I'll post a picture of you soon.
