Wrapping up 2023

Happy New Year! Break is over for me and I have to get back to the real world tomorrow so let's wrap 2023 up! 

We had a beautiful sunset.

 

Marlo turned 10 on the 20th and had a day filled with her favorite things. Waffles for breakfast, 2 parties at school, ice cream. What a day.

 

We got to see all of our family for Christmas.

 

We had some friends over. And got to play on Kasper's new electronic drum set! 

 

Kasper has done a LOT of skiing over break! I think he and his buddies have gone 4 of the days! There's not even any snow but they make enough.

   

We went up to St. Cloud for NYE and decided to hit up Powder Ridge so Marlo could try her new skiis and get comfortable on them before ski clob starts next week. But then she slipped on the ice and hurt her tailbone so Kasper, Rob and I spent the day at Powder Ridge yesterday. We actually had a blast.

 

We spent New Years Eve with some high school friends, their kids and a corn snake named Milo. 

 

 We made it to midnight to watch the countdown and sing Happy Birthday to Kappy! Bring it on 2024!

Celebration szn

It's celebration season over here! 

First I got a couple pictures of the girls on our Mom/daughter date to the theater. 

This week was pretty quiet except for Kasper coming down with a gnarly case of strep. He laid in bed for 2 days which I don't think he's even done in his life. Thankfully after starting antibiotics Thursday morning he was feeling well enough to go to school Friday. 

Friday evening we had a family birthday party for the kids. 

Marlo was up bright and early doing a paint by number she received.

   

 Today Marlo celebratied with her little besties!

   

Not the best lighting but the projects turned out so cute!

   

Whew! Now we have a couple days to recover before more celebrating. Hope everyone had a great weekend!

We had a chill week! 

Marlo fell on her wrist in gym a coupe weeks ago and it's still bothering her so I took her in to the Dr. They took x-rays and saw there was no break so she got a splint and has to wait until it gets better. 

She had fun getting the x-ray. 

We stopped at the General Store in Minnetonka on the way home. If you've never been there over the holidays, it's incredible. 

Marlo and I went to a play at the high school with Marlo's bestie and her Mom and went out for lunch before hand! We saw the Sound of Music and it was INCREDIBLE. I didn't take any pictures but I'm going to try to get some because the girls were so cute. 

Marlo got an early Christmas present - a tree in her room! Just what she wanted!

 

 Today we went to my parents house for a little Christmas celebration! 'Tis the season! 

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
