A New First for Luke

Today as Luke was eating a chocolate chip muffie for breakfast, he discovered an extra ingredient in the muffie. He’s been waiting for this moment for a couple days, and after an initial bit of concern at the reality of it, he regained his excitement and proudly told his teacher today.

Winter in Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin

There is nothing like winter in Northern Wisconsin at Nana and Pops Lake House. We had a wonderful time and did a lot of sledding. Here are some fun pictures!

Luke LOVED sledding this year. He was fearless and was trying lots of different ways to get the sled to go faster. It was super fun to see him enjoy it so much and be so confident.

Look at her eyes. She is about to crash into the snowbank, which means tears have started!

Katy and Abby walking to the lake from Nana and Pops lake house. Winter Wonderland!

Nana stayed inside a lot with Brendan so we all could play in the snow, thanks Nana!

Even though Brendan could not join us sledding, he seemed to enjoy his cool bath at Nana and Pops Lake house.
