Phil and I spent 3 days in Minneapolis last week. We attended the Association of Confessional Lutherans National Free Conference No. 21 and Luther Academy Lecture Series No. 17,
Confessing the Faith: In Light of the Lutheran Confessions.
Sounds fun doesn’t it? Well, it was actually.
We sat through 2 days of lectures and I loved every minute of it, well, there were a few minutes I glazed over, zoned out and almost fell asleep, but a night of scratchy sheets, no fan and a lack of pillows can do that to a pregnant lady.
The guest speakers were great. There wasn’t a lecture we wanted to miss so even though we were 5 minutes walking distance from the Mall of America and IKEA, shopping, eating and gaping would have to wait.
This mall is big, very big.
With an amusement park in the center.
And more places to eat than you could ever need. Clara would never have left if we’d have invited her.
Lego mania!
The Weeny Mobile, me and baby!
Our last night in the city we took the train and spent some time downtown Minneapolis. The tight sweater must have been squeezing my face…
We ate at a brew pub, I don’t remember the name, but it was very good.
And I got this special coffee. I knew I was on vacation then! This was a nice getaway for me and Phil but it was good to get home. I can definitely say I don’t miss big city life. I was missing my no stop light cow town! Oh and my babies.
