From December 28 through January 4th of this year I went to Minnesota. My cousin Shaun got married at the St. Paul Temple so I went with grandma to go celebrate and support him in this exciting milestone of his life. We stayed in Minneapolis and the St. Paul area for a few nights then we went up north to my uncle's place in Ely. The first night we got there it was about -20 degrees. I exaggerate not. We celebrated new years 20s style and had plenty of noise makers to make it really exciting. It was a great holiday. We played games, and just enjoyed the family bonding time we had. We went into Ely for lunch and shopping, everything felt the same as 3 years ago when I worked there. It was a great experience. I got dressed in a Carrhart jumpsuit and we went sledding one night. We went down the driveway and it was pitch black, but after I got over my fear it was really amazing. We rode down on some flexible flyers. We went back down to Minneapolis for our last night there and went to dinner with Melanie and Reuben. We had an early flight the next morning, but it was nice to come home, even though it wasn't much warmer here.

It was fun to see you! I'm glad you were able to come visit. And yes- the carhart coveralls are a must for sledding up there.
That may have been the best New Years ever1
Sounds like a fun trip.
