Another entry into "NOT Dad of the Year..."

Happy 2nd Birthday Elijah!

Eli turns 2 today. Where does the time go? Eli and I are chilling today...started the morning by playing in a fort with his new toys. Sunday everyone came over to celebrate Eli's party. He has been going from toy to toy ever since!

Isaac had his Christmas program last week....this year no tears! They did such a good job and seemed to have fun.

Da brothers....

Scott's dad made this ark and all the animals. Its a special treat when the boys get to play with it. Isaac kept calling it the Mayflower, etc....little confused but we'll get there.

We hope you are all having a great holiday season thus far and are able to celebrate with loved ones.

DADDY, What is that?

Hello! Wow we've been asleep at the blog wheel lately! Haven't been up to a whole lot. Enjoying the new snow in our area. Both of the boys love being outside and find every reason possible to get out there.

Scott and my mom made such a nice meal for all of us this weekend in honor of my birthday. Thanks to everyone for all of the messages, cards and gifts. Its so nice to have such great family and friends!
Our Thanksgiving plans were altered due to storms and freezing rain. We stayed close to home and enjoyed a few moments in the snow.

Our soon to be 2 year old....

Hope you are all well and enjoying the holiday season!

Happy Halloween!

Thankfully the weather bounced back from last week for a nice Halloween. Isaac and Eli were Woody and Buzz from Toy Story. Both had a good time. Eli was all about digging into the candy whenever he could. Isaac on the other hand, when houses offered fruit instead, always took the fruit. Night and Day those two....

Usually Isaac likes handing out candy, but this year ran around Thompson with friends. Trick or treaters at the door still commented that this must be Isaac's house and to say hi. Really think the kid should run for major.

Breakin in the Woody boots....

Took the boys to Yunker farms in Fargo, the boys had a great time. Can't wait to take them back again sometime.

Train ride....

Hope everyone had a safe weekend!

Super-rific Weekend

Mike and Lexi treated Isaac and I to a great weekend. We had perfect weather for enjoying some time outside.

Mike and Lex took us for an awesome boat ride and tried to teach Isaac how to fish. Isaac wondered if they were going to be real fish...which was verified by one promptly flopping in front of him.

Our biggest catch of the day courtesy of Mike.....

Thanks for a great weekend Up North Brews! Isaac summed it up pretty good as we drove away...I sure had fun....sure am going to miss them.
