Our weekend in Minneapolis was pretty exciting with the Super Bowl in town.  There were lots of celebrities that were found throughout the city at various restaurants and other areas that we frequent on a regular basis.  We didn't run into anyone, but it was funny to hear that Jimmy Fallon went to dinner in a town about 15 minutes from us.

The weather certainly didn't disappoint, if you were hoping for typical Minnesota winter weather, that is.  The temps were bitter cold and it snowed on both Friday and Saturday.  John took the boys downtown to the Super Bowl experience on Saturday at the Convention Center and they had a blast getting to see the Lombardi trophy, and testing out their skills running, throwing, and jumping at various exhibits.  They saw lots of football memorabilia and really enjoyed the day although they were exhausted by the end.

The high school in Maple Grove (that the boys will eventually attend) had several girls on their dance team who got to dance in the halftime show with Justin Timberlake.  Overall, the weekend was a fun for us and such a neat experience for several of our friends and neighbors who attended the game and the concerts over the Super Bowl weekend.  I think the big boys will remember the weekend for many years to come.
