Spontaneous is the word for this weekend.....Ryan and I were talking Saturday afternoon that since he had a 3 day weekend, we should have gone on a little trip. So.....2 hours later, we were packed and driving to Minneapolis to the Mall of America! It used to be a lot easier to just pick up and go somewhere....not so much with a dog and child! We had to find a hotel that took dogs and had a bedroom divided from the rest of the room, with a pool and hot tub and at a reasonable price.....not easy! But, alas, we found one and were on our way! We spent Sunday at the mall....mostly just walking around and chasing Jaxon:) We did take him on a couple rides as well....which he enjoyed and so did I! We took him swimming at the hotel in the morning too. Herky even volunteered to babysit Jaxon after he went to bed sunday night so Ryan and I could soak in the hot-tub:) Such a nice dog! We had to take off monday morning after breakfast to beat the storm that was hitting back home! It was a short trip...but was fun and always nice to get away.
this ride whipped you around corners.....he was plastered to me the whole time, but didn't cry....
he was amazed at all the tall ride! 
The Big Rig ride.....
he finds every wheel!
snuggle time with daddy before bed
Herky didn't waste any time making himself at home in the hotel....i guess it was his vacation too.
