Sleepover with Sawyer

We had Sawyer overnight this last Friday and the girls couldn't get enough of her.  Had to take a couple of pictures of Bailee snuggling with her.

The Vikings Fans!

The Vikings played last Sunday (after the Packers beat Detroit on Thursday night) so we had football Sunday at our house.  The purple and gold was in full force.

Father and son, Lenny's back to being a Vikings fan.

Shar, Shar Visit!

We met up with my good friend Shari at the Machine Shed for brunch before Azlynn's birthday party.  The girls were crazy and silly, much like Shari, so it was a perfect time!  I love getting a chance to catch up with her!

Azlynn turns 6!

The girls went to Azlynn's 6th birthday party at Sky Zone a couple of weeks ago.  They loved it and were nice and tired when I picked them up.

Buzzy's Back!

Our elf on the shelf, Buzzy, is back for another holiday season.  He's been a little naughtier this year and the girls are loving it.  Aftin left the toothpaste out and this is what he did overnight.

Bella's Vet Visit

Bella had her annual vet visit last week.  I can't believe she's been with us for a whole year now.  She did great and although scared, was very sweet.  We did find out she went from 14 lbs. (too thin) when we first got her to 19 lbs. (2 lbs. overweight) currently.  So she's on a diet and won't be grazing anymore.  We also found that she has lyme's so we now have her on antibiotics.  We frontline her, but with where we live in the country it doesn't protect her 100%.  Other than that she's amazing and we couldn't imagine life without her.

More Fun From Beaver Bay

We headed to Gooseberry Falls on Saturday with the whole family.  The weather was beautiful and the girls loved exploring all the rocks.

A family picture attempt though Bella didn't cooperate.

Another night, another hockey game, so fun!

The girls were being crazy, so Uncle Jeremy sat between them to calm them down. It was so cute!

Beaver Bay Here We Come!

We visited Auntie Jenni, Uncle Justin and the kids the weekend after Thanksgiving in Beaver Bay.  The girls loved the hotel and pool just like in July and we got a special treat of watching Megan play hockey.  She's #22 below.

Thanksgiving 2015

We celebrated Thanksgiving at our house and it was a smaller crowd with Jeannie and Bob going to Jenni's and Rusty and Tamara missing due to his work.  It was great food, fun games and lots of relaxation.

We started with a picture of a cute, little turkey from Colorado.  Love it!

 

Bella had a plan and stuck to it all day.  Sleeping Beauty.

We had to do a selfie in order to get a picture together.

Has He Converted? Viking or Packer Fan - Not Sure...

I may have slightly converted Grandpa Lenny into a Green Bay Packer fan by getting him a Jordy Nelson shirt.  He may only be a fan of #87 (his other son as he calls him), but I'll take that as a win. 

The BIG 4-0 - Lambeau Style!

Lance and I celebrated my 40th by going to see the Green Bay Packers in Lambeau.  We couldn't have asked for nicer weather in the middle of November.  It was 61 degrees the day of the game and we thought it would be a win because they were playing the Lions, but unfortunately we were wrong and they lost due to a missed field goal.  The game, stadium and fans didn't disappoint though and it's a weekend for the record books.  

Heading out!

We had great seats!

Yep, we had a Lions fan right in front of us...
