The 2 weeks we have been in Minnesota have taught me many things so far. Here are a few:
1. There are lakes everywhere!
2. Apparently, people like the word "yep!". I say thank you, they say "Yep!" In my interview last week, I was giving my explanation to the question and the manager responds "Yep...yep...yep...". ????
3. When I order a Diet Coke, they refer to it only as "diet". "You want more diet?"
4. It's a small world....we have already encountered a person that works at the nearby florist that grew up in Clear Lake, outside of Houston. Then the Enterprise rental car guy told me he has a cousin that lives in Humble, TX!
5. I've been surprised by how warm it has been this week...highs are in the 90's. It feels so much more comfortable b/c the humidity is low. Although, Monday on the local news they had information on recognizing heat strokes. ;) It is hard to imagine that a place that can get this warm can also get so dreadfully cold!
6. And the biggest thing I have learned so far (b/c I have been told many times)..... is that apparently Michael and I have Texas accents!! :) If they only knew they were the ones that actually talk funny!

I like how you are tricking us into thinking Minnesota is this crazy foreign place with totally different customs! Seriously, I love the blog. It is the only way to get my Michael and Kyla fill. The only way.
