Zoo Lights

Sarah and I took the oldest four kids to Chicago to see my brother Matt and his wife Unity.  It was so fun!  We had supper with them and then headed to the zoo for zoo lights  Jonny was so excited.  He had always wanted to see what the animals did at night.  It was so cool.  The monkeys looked like a bunch tired people...all sacked out on each other sleeping.  I love that zoo.  It's one of the best!

Cousins! They had so much fun together.  It was so cute!!


She found a princess (of course)!

So Many jobs

We went to visit my sister in Milwaukee.  The Children's museum is always a favorite.  The kids love dressing up and trying out all the different jobs.  How about a bus driver or

Grocery store clerk

or stock shelves at Target (oh wait he does that already)

A mechanic (can you wear sparkly shoes and a sparkly skirt)

Maybe I'll stick with singing

or how about digging in the dirt for a living

I'll wear grubby clothes and be a mechanic or

Star gazer

SNOW!!


It wasn't much, but it was enough to play in!



Grandpa and Grandma O came to spend Christmas with us.  It was so fun and special to have them here! Everyone is looking and smiling!  Amazing!!

We swam,

Ellie is so excited to see Lights Under Louisville!

Went to Lights under Louisville,

ate ice cream,

built a snowman (Grandpa and Jonny went to Southern made the snowballs, put it in Grandpa's trunk and brought it home),

and read stories together. 


Thanks for coming!  It was so fun!!
