Winter Wedding

We had the honor of celebrating with Adam and Courtney on their wedding day in January. 

 Brett managed to sneak in a dance with the bride.

 Isaiah danced with two bottles of soda.

While we were in town, we got to go tubing at Title Town!

Christmas Highlights

It is really easy to find volunteer work.  I am one of the leaders in the 5th and 6th grade ministry of our church.  For the last several years, I have helped organize the giving tree at our church.  This fall, Bryan and I also fell into the role of directors for the wrestling club.  All of these roles made October through December a really hectic few months.  On top of that, I love holidays and there are so many of them, including two birthdays, during those months!  We've been hosting the Wedan Christmas for the last few years.  I love to do it, but at the same time, I'm not very good at keeping it simple, and that can add to the craziness of the season.  Well, now that it's February, I think I've recovered.  Wrestling is still keeping us really busy.  More to come on that one!  But first, a look back at Christmas...

 Lumberjack's Christmas Party

 Generation gap.

 Reggie asked Santa for KitKats.

We met up with my extended family at a Pizza Ranch.  Easiest holiday hosting ever!  Only snag was there was an ice storm that day, so we traveled the day before and stayed overnight at a hotel.  The kids didn't mind!

There.  I think I'm caught up to 2020 now!

Thanksgiving Highlights

We traveled to my parents' for Thanksgiving.  A really big winter storm caused us to go a day early, and leave early.  But we got there!  My kids love to tinker in the woodshop with Grandpa, and he had a Christmas tree wood project for them to build.  Grandma helped them paint the trees.  She thought she was going to have to buy more paint because Reggie "frosted" his instead of painting it!

 We had a lot of yummy good and the kids had fun with the cousins.  Isn't their dog, Lucky, cute?

Halloween and Unified Night Out

I see that I missed a few fall highlights, so here we go!

 Slug bug fest!

 Search for the perfect pumpkin!

 Diary of a Wimpy Kid? Yes, please.

 Lydia had a migraine on Halloween, so she didn't trick-or-treat.  The kids pooled and split their loot.

The kids participated in the Special Olympics Minnesota Unified Night Out.  Together, they raised almost $600 for Special Olympics and had a fun night at MOA Nickelodeon Universe!
