Summertime

It's been awhile since our road trip. We have just been hanging out in Minnesota Yesterday was the annual Sand Blast sand sculpture contest. We had six people particiapte this year, so Jenny and I decided to be on different teams.

Valerie, Emily, and me displaying our "Leftovers" creation. It is the leftovers from the feeding of the 5000.

Dana, Selena, and Jenny displaying their apple pie. There's pie? out there this big!?
 
It was a tough year for sand sculpting, as it rained fairly hard for the first 30 minutes of the competition. But, we got out our rain ponchos and umbrellas and persevered through it. Sadly, neither team won a prize, but we did place fourth and fifth! (do not inquire how many teams participated...) Yesterday, Jenny and I also went to a ski show at the same place (Foster Arends park). It was pretty neat to watch, but a little chilly.
