Cove Point Lodge

Wow, we sure are blessed with beautiful scenery in MN winters. After christmas we headed to Cove Point Lodge and stayed 2 nights in a beautiful brand new "cabin", well, if you consider a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, all wood and beautiful tile, huge kitchen, dining, living room a cabin. The boys even had a bath in the jacouzzi. It was so fun, with daddy as the planner, we went ice skating, sledding, swimming, and played a lot at the resort as well. Thank you grandma and grandpa for a wonderful christmas gift!

Christmas 2010

We had a wonderful christmas with the boys. We went to church christmas eve to see the "real" nativity - the boys were so excited. Then we came home and made shrimp(my tradition growing up), and I'm excited to report the boys already requested it for next year!! Opening presents was a blast - brennan was so excited, he didn't know how to contain it, he was literally jumping with excitement, it was so cute, and so fun!! Both boys were just as excited to give eachother the gifts they purchased, brennan even blurted out what it was while Kobe was opening the one from him!! I just love these times when the boys are little, and am trying to cherish them forever!

Brennan's christmas concert

Today was Brennan's first christmas concert!! All 11 minutes of it!! He was so excited, he had been counting down the days since last week! It was adorable - he actually did better than I expected, he was shy a few times, but did a lot of the hand motions and singing. Go Brennan. Unfortunately my pics didn't turn out the best, but I do have an adorable video!!

Thank you to both grandma and grandpa's for attending both concerts, even in this wonderful snowy and cold "fall" we are having!!

Kobe Christmas concert

Kobe had his christmas concert on thursday evening. The kindergarteners were so adorable. They were all dressed as shepherds. The entire concert/play was awesome, and it seemed like they all enjoyed it with the upbeat modernized songs! I just love that they know they can have fun while praising God!!

Unfortunately brennan got sick after the concert with the flu. Now, 3 days later I am sick. Thank goodness the snow kept us from going to our family christmas yesterday, I would have infected my mom's entire family!! God sure knows what he is doing!!

BTW, in the above picture, Kobe is fourth from the left in the top row!

Lost Tooth

My baby lost his first tooth. Wow, it really makes me look at him differently, he just looks like he's growing up. And BTW when I say Lost, I mean LOST literally. Kobe went to brush his teeth monday morning and noticed the tooth was missing. We knew it was loose, but I didn't think it was that loose!!! We searched for hours, I changed all his sheets (luckily mondays I do sheets anyway), troy moved his bed, no luck (seriously, those things are so tiny), Kobe was bummed!! We'll keep looking or we'll just leave a note for the tooth fairy. His other tooth next to it is ready to pop out too, it is as loose now as the first one was, so maybe the tooth fairy can just do a double. Kobe keeps saying "it's a good thing it's not corn on the cob season" - I wonder where that idea came from!! :)
