Snow!

You would think that living in Wisconsin would

mean that Owen has been out in the snow several

times in the last 4 months, but had not ventured out

until last week. Between ear infections, colds, and sub

zero degree weather, it just never seemed right. I took

him out on my own last week when I shoveled and

he wanted so badly to get up and walk around himself.

He seemed to really enjoy it, but after a few minutes

he is ready to go in and get warm!

All bundled up!

Jordan took him for a ride on Tuesday with

our most recent snowfall of 12 inches!

Ice Boating

We went to Pewaukee Lake on Sunday to go ice

boating with my best friend Abby, her husband and

her parents. Abby's dad has been ice boating for years

and he likes to share thrill with anyone that is willing to

try. Owen, Abby, her mom and I all stayed inside

the restaurant to watch the boys go out on the ice.

It was a fun way to spend Sunday afternoon!

the ice and the boat

Walking on the lake is always a strange feeling
