Whew...

Now that Christmas, Vegas, traveling, and laundry from being gone for a week and half are over I am looking forward to some time at home.

Farewell Boots the Elf. We have had so much fun with Boots this year and can't wait until he returns next year.



Evan had his Christmas concerts at school and he did so great!

Drew, his buddy and Evan singing

Beard of white...

Singing for the employees at the hospital

Thumbs up dad!

Wyatt not a fan of Santa with Grandma

Nick and I went to Vegas last week with his sister Erin and his sister Lindsay and her husband Ben to watch UNI play UNLV. Good thing the arena is awesome, because UNI didn't play so hot. We got delayed a day because of the storm of the century, but made it home just in time to leave 16 hours later for WI for Christmas.

The boys were spoiled between the grandparents and I think wore them out, but they were perfect for them. Which as a parent is all you hope for.

Watching Papa Dave

Since we got a foot of snow we decided while in Wisconsin we should do some sledding at my Aunt Char's house. And it is flat as a pancake so we tried the ditch to get some downhill action.

Go Uncle Eric Go!!!

Go Gramps!

I should have more photos from Christmas soon.

Here is to a great 2013!

Love,

Christmas Fun

I may be enjoying the Elf on the Shelf thing a little much, but watching both boys look for Boots in the morning is worth it. Evan asks each night where I think Boots will be in the morning, gives me the motivation to keep being creative.

Going potty

Under the weather

Downward dog
We took the boys on the Santa Train in Boone. It was a lot of fun going to the "North Pole"



Singing Christmas Carols on the train
We enjoyed the first snow fall of the year too.

Wyatt "visiting" Santa. As you can see Evan is no where near.
Can't wait to see the boys at Christmas this year!
