This year I took the girls up for a couple nights with my mom and dad.  The girls didn't sleep very much, but they got some good sissy bonding time in! Farm time: On our way to a cabin near Walker, MN Gwen got to go in a Labyrinth. This was timely since the Jim Hanson movie "Labyrinth" with David Bowie is her favorite film right now. I Itasca fun! Gwenny had her 5th birthday. We celebrated Toy S...
