Happy Birthday Little Man!!!!

We love you, are so blessed to have you, and can't imagine a second without you! You have brought so much joy to our lives the past two years, and I can't wait to see what the next year holds for you. We love you!!!

Life is rough...

I took this picture last week during an impromptu photo shoot in Ben's room! I just love how it captures real life - Addisyn not happy that she has to sit on the chair with Ben, and Ben looking at her like what in the world is wrong with you?! Don't you just love their little faces??

Happy Valentine's Day

After seeing the lightest dusting of snow falling to the ground, Addisyn pretty much pasted her face to the window! So we made a trip out back to play! Its days like these that make me so thankful to not work a Monday-Friday job!

Winter Fun

Brad and I decided to start a fun winter family activity - skiing/snowboarding! This was my first time out in at least 13+ years, and Brad's first attempt at snowboarding. So we signed up for a lesson, and off we went! They offered free childcare during the lesson, so it made it that much easier for us to go. Not to brag, but I'm pretty good! Once I figured out how to put the skis on, I was good! Now Brad, that's another story! After asking someone for help, he finally managed to get the board on - and that's where the trouble started! We were on the slopes ready to go by 2ish, but our lesson wasn't until 3:30, so we had plenty time to watch Brad flip, fall, you name it - he did it! Thankfully the instructors were great and were able to teach Brad some basics with boarding. We will definitely need to keep practicing our new skills, and hopefully, we'll be able to get the kids out with us soon!

After an afternoon on the slopes, we finished the day with snow tubing with the kiddos. Addisyn absolutely loved it! Ben wasn't overly impressed with the big hills, but he did enjoy the kiddie hill. It was definitely a fun day for all!

Merry Christmas!!!
