Children's Museum

Water table --fun

Room full of water fun!

A huge climbing thing that goes all the way to the ceiling

Changing the tire like a pro

We journeyed up to Brookings to enjoy their new Childrens Museum over Christmas break--what a cool place. I think my kids could have stayed there all day-- it was really neat!

Merry Christmas!!!

Fun pics

Of course this would NEVER happen if I had Jackson--Jason puts his magic in motion ..Jackson passed out on the couch while sitting up!!

Our annual cookie baking

Christmas Program

This year both Jackson and Peyton were in our church Christmas program. Jackson- a sheep and Pey the star. Pey didn't actually have any lines but of course wanted some and wanted to sing a solo--so she was given a piece (which she memorized in 1 day) and basically sang a solo, since she was singing along w/ 2- 3yr olds and a 2 yr old :-) She definitely doesn't get her outgoingness (yes I've made that a word if it isn't) from me :-)

Tree time!

The Conners-- excited about their tree!

Can you tell some of us enjoy this more than others :-)

I actually picked the 2nd tree we saw which made Jason happy and surprised!

Every year since Pey has been born we've chopped down our own tree...its fun for the kids and us. This year the Conners came w/ us---it was a harder tree decision for them than us. Yes and every year as I pick up the needles I think I'd like a fake tree--but it seems so "un-Christmas like"...

First!

Nebraska boys!

Daddy's girl

Peyton all ready for her FIRST school Christmas concert--it was great and she had fun at it!

Brainwashing....

Family pic 2010--haven't taken one of us all forever!

Yes we may be brainwashed by Grandpa and Grandma... :-) Go Packers!

Birthdays, Birthdays

Pey is pretty lucky--she gets two birthday cakes..since she had her friend party and got her horse cake she went easy on me and chose an easy ladybug. Jackson got a dump truck cake which we had both for our family birthday party.
