Animals and Rides!

BUSY WEEK!!!!

Its been a very busy around the Spieler household the last week.

We started off last Thursday with the groundbreaking ceremony of the Performing Art Center in Burnsville. I had the opportunity to hold a golden shovel and throw dirt! The ceremony was open to the entire city and served Subway sandwiches, chips, fruit and cake. The kids loved the Cheetos!!!!



On Saturday, we started the day with Tot Shabbat at Mt. Zion and both kids did great. That night, we had a former college friend and his wife for dinner.

On Sunday, we checked out the MN Zoo and the new Minnesota Trail. The trail was quite impressive with the new exhibits including the wolves and beaver den. We also saw a group of Caribou moving around. They must have been hot with all their hair!








On Sunday night, We headed over to Vicki's playgroup friends for dinner (Pizza and beer). The kids got to play with their daughter Amy and all her toys. They kids definitely had a great time.

This week, I have had a customer in all week and went out for dinner twice, Monday and Wednesday. We went to Osaka (Japanese restaurant in Apple Valley). Definitely two thumbs up. Great sushi and tempura.

On Wednesday, we headed to Valleyfair for Seagate's Family Picnic.


It was hot and humid - which did have an impact on our fun. the kids did good despite the conditions. Riley loved the rides! Brooke was indecisive about the rides. She wanted to go on them and once she was on it, wanted to get off. Oh well!










Tonight, Vicki and I have dinner with the management team for a bet I won with them last year. Tomorrow, the parents are coming in town and heading to Scott and Angie's annual office party.

With that, have a great day!
