The Minnesota Auto Show

Last Saturday we all went to the Auto Show at the MN Convention Center in downtown Minneapolis. Mom and Dad talked on & on about some big pharmacy test they took here...but we were interested in the REALLY tall buildings.

When we got there, Mom and Dad tricked us- see this picture? They told us that THIS was the Auto Show. What a bunch of goofs!





This is the very first car I decided to try out! Mom kept trying to get me to pose for pictures but I said 'Stop'. I'm driving and I need to concentrate (maybe keep your eyes open as well??)









Next I tried out the trunks- this one was very roomie. I heard that Grandma Genia and her friend Mrs. Zelma would have approved of all this ample space. It's been known that they used to buy their cars based on trunk space.















Lily also loved the auto-show. She didn't get to sit in the driver's seat very often (someone beat her to it constantly), but when she sat in the car the first thing she would do is buckle up. Yeah for safety!















This is what we came to see- the Camero! Dad's dream car. It seems like a sweet ride but we were disappointe that we couldn't get to it (and oh we tried)

Lily decided that maybe she'd like to be a car model instead of a kitty doctor. They had access to all the really cool cars AND they got to spin in a circle!





Dad got to sit in his dream mobile. After he got out he informed us that "you can rent these"...it's good to have dreams, Dad!











Even little Devin got to try out some of the cars- always in the back seat, but he didn't care...he giggled, crawled around the seats, prodded and pulled at the interior. He'd make a great inspector one day!















Here we are checking out the tunes on the Mini Cooper convertible. As perpetual shot gun, Lily should get say in the tunes, but as big brother, I get some input as well. The convertibles were our favorite. We couldn't believe that Mommy had one! She misses it...maybe one day? Mommy's can have car dreams as well...







This is the last photo that Mom took---after this I slammed my finger in a Ford and I wanted to go home!

A cup of ice later, lots of kisses, and a treat made my black and blue finger somewhat better. I am proud of it and show everyone I can how black and blue it is.
