Sparring

Laura's 3rd sparring class. She's the little one with the green belt and blond hair sticking out in back. She's so brave and is loving hitting people.

The boys right in front of the camera are hilariously crazy.

Snow Sculptures!

Getting all we can out of Minnesota before we leave...

We spent the afternoon at the Bakken Museum, then stumbled upon a snow sculpture contest, went walking on Lake Calhoun, and had dinner at Agra Culture.
