Growing up, we usually went on vacation via the car trip. And anytime I entered a state I had not yet visited, I got to color in that state on my very own state map, so I could keep track of each state I've entered.
Wouldn't you know it, Sean's family kept track of their visited states, too. Now it's a tradition that we're doing with our kids!
You know what's a tricky state to log? North Dakota. Not a whole lot of exciting things happening in that state. Way up north. In fact, there are North Dakota visitor centers that have shirts celebrating people getting their 50th state- they know. They know their state isn't the most enticing.
But do you know what it borders? Minnesota. So, gosh, we had to take a trip. I'd apparently visited the state when I was very young but the rest of my family has not.
To Fargo.
We drove over on a Friday, had some dinner, and played the night away at the hotel pool. The next day we hit up a couple fun venues before heading back home. First, we scoped out the Fargo Air Museum. Super cool planes, tricky keeping the kids from climbing into them.
Ha! These boys are the funniest.
Little Man found a cool motorcycle that he told us all about.
(model plane, not the real thing)
The drone was one of everyone's favorites.
It was very much Wren's naptime so we thought she might fall asleep. That was a very silly expectation.
Keeping his smile on despite a few time outs. Oh, what a three-year-old.
Coming up, a children's museum!
