Museum, First Snow, and Weekend Getaway

Finally catching up on the blog...just in time for Dave's birthday and the holidays!  Can't believe he is going to be 6, ugh.  Anyway, our last two weekends were jam-packed but super fun.  Starting with this weekend, when we went to our local museum for a fun day and experienced our first snow of the year!

Ike dressed up like a cowboy.

After the museum, we went to Pizza Hut to redeem Dave's book-it pizza.  Love that this program is still going on!





Before we left in the morning-first flakes beginning to fall.  All the kids were trying to catch them.















About 3 hours later.  And it's still coming down!

So last weekend, Josh and I went away with our friends Katie and Conrad to stay at Josh's uncle's cabin in Wisconsin.  We had super great weather and ate our way through Lake Geneva!  While we were away, my mom came to stay with the kids and they did lots of stuff, but the most fun they had was seeing my stepbrothers perform at their band competition in Indy.

They even got to put on the cool hats!

From a hike we took in Wisconsin.  Beautiful scenery and I love aspens.

Proof of our hike.  It was super confusing trying to find this!

Just Ike being cute while I was putting up the Christmas lights last week.
