Winter Sunshine
It was 48 degrees today in Minnesota...but tomorrow's weather forecast is a high of zero degrees. Glad we played in the sunshine today.
Christmas 2013
This Christmas started with a Christmas Eve sleepover with Avery, Isla, Travis, Lauren, and De. We read the Christmas story, opened gifts, watched the crackling fireplace, saw "It's a Wonderful Life", smoked a turkey, and watched the kids playing. It was fun & loud.
1st birthday party for Braddax
We celebrated Braddax' birthday yesterday with party hats and birthday cookies. Grandma Debbie joined us to celebrate.

Winter Trip to Iowa
Brock took the boys down to Iowa this week to see Uncle Brice, cousins Erin & Patrick, and Grandpa Roger. They ate oyster stew and had fun shooting guns.
Thanksgiving 2013
To focus on the "thanks" in Thanksgiving, we collected tree branches & made a centerpiece listing things we are thankful for. Later we talked about the first Thanksgiving and made Indian headpieces. All seemed to be going well until Braxton said, "If we are thankful to God on Thanksgiving - why do we wear these weird bunny ear hats?
Sisters Together
I was blessed to spend time with both of my sisters this week. It was really good to be together! Mom joined us too & then they drove back to Missouri together. Super fun!
Anniversary Memories
For our 10 year anniversary this year Brock & I took a trip down memory lane - driving past the 3rd floor apartment where Dor & I lived in St. Paul, Brock's 1st floor apartment in Columbia Heights, and our first house together in Brooklyn Park. Then he gave me a new anniversary ring to join my wedding ring set. Such a great day!
