An outing :)

A perk of my job at a newspaper, sometimes we get free passes into things. A couple weeks ago we got a postcard stating it was Media day at the Science Museum of Minnesota. Reporters and their families (up to 4 people) could get in the museum for free. They had a new dinosaur exhibit, which we were particularly excited to see, and we got to see a dinosaur movie on the IMAX screen!

Here's Sophie acting like a news anchor in part of the museum. :)


Sophie wearing her dinosaur mask that she got in her goodie bag.




Was fun to get out of town for a day, and of course afterward we went to IKEA! :)

Sophie turns 6!

Can you believe it? Sophie is 6! Here's a few photos from the day of her actual birthday when we had cake at home, plus from her party with a few girls from church!


Here she is on her real birthday :)



The decorations.

Sophie and her friends in their Hello Kitty masks they made.

The cake I made for the party :) (Ran out of frosting or I would have added a bow)

 Sophie and her friend, Hallee.

Jason braved it by holding up the piƱata while the kids hit it! We didn't have any other way to hang it up!

Landon turns 2!

We had a combined birthday party with Landon and Vanessa (our friend Sarah's daughter) It was butterfly and caterpillar themed. 




Here's Vanessa :)


Played pin the feet on the caterpillar.

Merry Christmas!

 Merry Christmas! We had a nice, quiet Christmas at home. Landon didn't quite know what to think of everything! He wanted nothing to do with unwrapping gifts. Got some cute pics of him though :)
A lot of the ones of Sophie ended up blurry but here's one when she first came down stairs and was super excited!





A field trip to Cabela's :)

The Saturday before Christmas we took a little trip to Cabela's. That place was BUSY!!
The kids loved the animals




Santa :)

Sophie was beyond excited to see Santa! Landon on the other hand, not so much. We'll see what next year brings. :)
Here they are:



Here Sophie was waiting anxiously in line to see Santa.
