Shack Trip!

David sleeping in the car on the way up. Looks so uncomfortable.
Mikko was all sweetness, showing off his rainboots.

The boys were so good in the car both ways. No whining or crying at all. It made our trip a breeze!

Jimmy had been on vacation with my Dad for the last two weeks. Here he is as we are driving into the driveway. My Dad had him sitting but when he figured out it was us, he ran!

Reunited!

David really wanted to sleep in the loft so I let him take a nap with me up there.

I went to Ronnings on Friday and bought David some new rainboots because he had outgrown his. He walked around in them with his underwear for 2 days. Let's just say the Shack is really warm with the woodstove.

Mikko was loving the shape sorter and did it all weekend with Grandma and Grandpa.

They can even multi-task and have a cocktail at the same time!

Fun with Grandma. She had a blast with him, as always, and wants him to come and stay a week with her.

The boys were both so good the whole weekend. I was so impressed by them.

Damon and I just finished reading "1-2-3 Magic", a parenting book recommended by our Pediatrician and it truly is Magic. It has awesome strategies for disciplining which David totally took to.

The Fougners came out to visit. Kisses to Nissa!

Kisses from Lucia.

As always, Lucia is just the most fun little girl you could imagine! What a bright spirit she is. I am so happy that our kids will grow up together. #2, a boy, is on the way!

Snack time!

We Sauna'd on Saturday afternoon.

Damon and Dad braving the snowbank! I did this too, but the photo-evidence will not be revealed on the World Wide Web!

Cheers! Hamms beer in the Sauna - only in the Falls!

Pulling Mikkers on the sled, over and over and over!
