New Year's in Evansville

We popped back down to Evansville for New Year's since the kids and I were on Christmas break. While we were there Josh and I helped mom paint her kitchen (drab green to gray, it looks so good!) and we took the kids on a couple of adventures.

Roller skating.

Dave ended up falling and hurting his wrist (he's fine but it was traumatic at the time) so we didn't stay super long. Roller skating is hard work!

This cat has adopted my mom as his owner. Ike absolutely loves him and spent a lot of time outside playing with him!

Just two boys being adorable :)













Fun trip as usual! We love getting down to Evansville to see everybody (although most were not pictured in his blog because I took so few pictures!).

Christmas 2019

We had such a fun and relaxing Christmas this year! Josh had to work so we did presents super duper early in the morning. Then we watched the cottage open up their gifts and ate breakfast all together.  After eating we headed to Marion to watch the new Jumanji movie with the guys. We've been looking forward to it coming out since we loved the first reboot!








Christmas morning in the jammies.












It was another beautiful day out so the kids and the cottage boys played outside when we got back. Can't believe Ike wore shorts on Christmas day!








Working on cracking open his geodes.


















Dave hooping.

















Paddle ball with Josh.









And that about wrapped up our Christmas celebrations! We went to Evansville over New Year's (I'll post that separately) so here are the rest of our adventures over break.







More walks to the poop ponds.

Lunch at Junk Ditch in Fort Wayne.

Their ice cream selection is out of this world!

The boys each completed an activity that my aunt and family sends every month-Ike gets Atlas Crate and Dave gets Tinker Crate.

Really digging that RC car.
