Winter break fun!

Winter break fun. We did everything from just hanging out to swimming, sledding (at the end of break when it finally snowed!!), Derek working on a few odd jobs for some friends, going to Bouncy Town, and of course spending time with Bry. Every time Bryan comes back "home" he has a few more groupies that follow his every move. We all miss him so much when he leaves and love when he comes back again for visits.

We really had a great break. After the Christmas festivities last weekend we headed to the Dells for a day at Chula Vista. Boy was that fun! Tessa is starting to get so much less tentative about the water slides and doesn't think twice about going down them. Nolan on the other hand is completely fearless and is a crazy monkey. He would have gone down the biggest water slide there if we would have let him! Seeing how much he's changed already since summer makes me excited for all of the swimming fun that we will have next summer.

We hope that everyone had a very Merry Christmas and enjoyed spending time with family this week as much as we did.
The first of our sledding adventures this winter. It's amazing how much fun sledding can be when there is only an inch of snow! Thanks for the piggyback ride on the sled Beau!

Nanny Mitchell taking care of Nolie. What a great cousin he is. Never fear...Mitchell's here! How are we seriously so lucky to have these kiddos in our lives??


The crew taking a break at the Chula Vista. Kind of hard to go from sledding to swimming (brrrrr) but they really are two of my favorite things.


By the end of the day Nolan had this slide figured out. He finally figured out that if he did this quick turn around on his belly that he wouldn't get a face full of water at the top of the slide.

A little snuggle time with Grandpa.


Break time at Bouncy Town.


Nolan feeling like a big boy as he tries to play old school Nintendo with Bry and Mas.


A quick pic with Bry...and no Derek isn't tickling his head like it appears :) Fun times. The holidays sure cruised by!
