Day #193- Peppermint Twist

Today we went to lunch and spent the afternoon with our playground friends at The Peppermint Twist. For those of you who live around us, if you've been there you know how fabulous it is, if you haven't- you MUST go! It's a blast :) To those not in MN- it's a 50s style drive in car hop restaurant with a playground. The best part of the playground is an outdoor dance floor with a jukebox that the kids can choose the music. (lots of 50s tunes) Check it out: http://www.thepepperminttwist.com/ It's famous and has been on The Food Channel :)
The kids had SO much fun there today...thus lots of pics :)

The awesome dance floor:


I am a little in love with these captures...SO Boy #1 at this happiest :)



This was my BAD idea of the day....to have 5 kids standing on the top platform for a pic of their shoes...literally 1 second after taking this they ALL fell off and tumbled on top of each other onto the ground resulting in many cries and one bloody scraped leg. Poor C#2 thankfully he's a forgiving soul :) BAD photographer BAD.


If you go there- be sure to get the raspberry shake...it's heaven! :D
