Day 49

Today was an awesome day. Today was "spend the day with the Theune family". The Theunes are here from Michigan on their vacation, going to the Mall of America, of course, and visiting me.

We first went to the Mall of America aquarium where we got FREE tickets because I knew one of the people that work there (he is an intern at CTC). THANK YOU CHRIS! So that was great, we went knowing that Chris was going to give us 50% off but then a manager or someone was there by him and said "Oh you're with Chris? Then you get your tickets for free." It was awesome.

The aquarium was amazing. I think the best part about it was reminding myself that it was in a mall! Here are some pictures:








We then went to the Theme Park in the Mall of America and rode a couple of rides. The girls rode a swing ride and then the twins, Nikki and I went on a roller coaster. It was really fun. Oh and then we met Spongebob, my favorite Nickelodeon character. I wasn't excited at all. :P


Then we all went to Como Zoo in St. Paul. Which is a FREE zoo and it was pretty awesome for being so. More pictures:






Then after the zoo, we went out to dinner in Downtown Minneapolis (after the girls insisted that they see my apartment, of course :] ). We went to Brit's Pub. And I had my first alcoholic drink with my favorite teacher/director/mentor/etc and his wonderful wife. He just sent me this picture. 


It was an awesome day with a truly awesome family. These people are a blast! Have a safe trip to Packer Land and then back home to West Michigan Theunes!!! 

Also tomorrow Theune is coming to CTC to see where I work. I am going to give him a quick tour. It's going to be awesome showing him this amazing place I have been working at this summer. 

Also I am having coffee after the internship tomorrow with my friend Madison who just graduated from GVSU and lives in St. Paul. I haven't seen her all summer and it is going to be great to catch up. 

Such a wonderful, wonderful day. :) I am definitely going to bed early tonight.
