Go STATE!

Way to go, Insight.com bowl champs! :) We had so much fun watching the game being altogether!

More Baby Sam!

We were able to snuggle with Baby Sam today! Brynn just loved him and asked if she could hold him everyday. It broke my heart to tell her we don't live close enough for her to do that. :( He is a sweet little mister and we love him so much. He loves to be held and loves to snuggle.

Papa Kevin

This child LOVES his Papa Kevin. Papa Kevin gets him to eat meat. Papa gets him to listen. Papa calms him down. Papa wrestles with him. He takes B. in the tractor and on anything motorized. Papa gives him any snack he wants.

Reading w/ Grandma Cindy

Grandma Cindy enjoyed reading to all of the kiddos one night when they all stayed here. :)

A snowman...finally!

We were finally able to make a snowman. It was a quick one and we didn't quite make it the "traditional" way, and ended up piling 3 big round snowballs on top of each other. Brynn was just thrilled! We added 2 branches for arms and a hat.

Playing in the snow, Iowa Style!

Yesterday it was beautiful weather--a perfect 30 degrees. So, we went out and played in the snow Iowa style. What's that mean? Climbing and sledding on/down huge piles of snow, making a snowman, eating icicles, & riding on snowmobiles and 4-wheelers. Unfortunately, we don't have a snowmobile anymore, but we do have a 4-wheeler. Baylen LOVED the 4-wheeler and riding with Papa. Papa pulled Brynn and I on a sled behind and that was so much fun even when we fell off! Brynn is still giggling and talking about that! Baylen and Dj also enjoyed riding on the sled.

Great G'ma Wilma

The kids enjoyed seeing Great G'ma Wilma when we made the trek up north. She equally enjoyed them. She loved loved loved Baylen and just chuckled at his every move.
