Out on the ice

So Jason's been talking for weeks about going out on the ice. (Of course he's been wanting to fish too!) So we decided to go ahead and drive out on the ice over where all the ice houses are and see what Sophie would think about it!


Here's the three musketeers :) (Jason didn't really like this one because you could see his gums, but I thought it was not too bad!


Me and Sophie in front of some of the ice houses on Albert Lea Lake!

Miscellaneous pics

So Sophie's hair is really starting to grow! Every once in a while we love to put it in a mohawk!



Sophie loved this book that Aunt Dianna gave her. She loved it so much it doesn't work anymore.

Catching up with Jessica and Paul

We just loved seeing Paul and Jessica yesterday up in Minneapolis! It was so much fun!

We didn't get pics of everyone there, so we might put more up when we get some from other people!

So after we went out to Olive Garden, then we went over to the Washington, D.C. LDS temple to look at the Festival of Lights.

Here's the temple with the lights.

Christmas Virginia Trip: Part 4: Seeing friends!

Sophie finally got to meet Laura and Josh's baby, Joseph! We joke around that they will get married someday. Joseph is about 6 1/2 months old, but is about the same size as Sophie! We loved seeing Laura and Josh's new house!

Sophie and Joseph just loved playing together and giggled for quite a while!
