So proud...

 of this brother of mine...Jacob just completed the 50 km Birkebeiner ski race in Hayward, Wisconsin this weekend! Utterly in awe...

Amazing.

happy new year

We had a quiet evening at home complete with an amazing dinner (thank you love), beautiful table scape (thank you my little loves) with many toasts and cheersing!

As we reflected on this past year, we each came up with a word that we thought represented the year best...

Jeff'...Support

Ryan...Bravery

Cole...Adventure

Jordan...Family

Here's to 2015!!

Winter adventure...part two

Next, we ventured up to Vance's cabin on snow shoes. We hiked up in snow to meet 3 other couples and 8 more kids. It continued to snow as we enjoyed games, hot chocolate, making snow caves complete with benches and cup holders, ski biking, sledding and more hot chocolate. Finally the sun greeted us for our magical walk out.

What a winter adventure it was!
