National Eagle Center

We went to the National Eagle Center in Wabasha on Saturday with our neighbors. The kids had fun seeing the eagles up close and in person and watching them on Lake Pepin through binoculars.

That is Harriet in the background. She was the "model" for the eagles on the Minnesota veteran's license plates.







We got to learn more about Harriet during the classtime.



Four silly eagles. Afterwards we went to Slippery's for dinner, which is mentioned in the movies Grumpy Old Men and Grumpier Old Men.



We went to a bowling and pizza party for one of D's friends on Sunday. The kids loved bowling and ramps + bumpers make for good scores. M didn't want to use the ramp the last few frames and he actually got a spare all on his own without his ball even touching the bumpers.
