Weekend wrap up

It was another good weekend around here! 

Looking back to Thursday- we had a nice afternoon around here then spent the evening at a friend's house playing cards.  The kids all had fun together.  Kase fell asleep at our friends' house, we came home around 10:00 to tuck him in his own bed and the rest of us all stayed awake here together until midnight! 

New Year's Day Kent and my dad put together Kael's basketball hoop he had gotten for Christmas then we proceeded to spend the rest of the day playing.  We had family over for the Hawkeye game and drew up brackets to play basketball.  It was so fun.  Wish I could say the same for the Rose Bowl. Eek!


Saturday the kids played outside quite a bit.  They are just loving this snow.


Sunday we went to Collins, visited Kent's grandparents and had fun playing on a giant snowpile with all the cousins! Also had some fun pulling a sled behind the gator.  The kids loved it. 



Sunday night we had a dinner out at nice restaurant in Ames.  It was so lovely.  I ate all of my food AND dessert.  As far as I'm concerned, New Years resolutions regarding diets should always start on the Monday after New Year's, not actual New Year's day. Ha!

Back to school today, and so far it seems like everyone got along just fine.  Myself, I'm ready for spring. The snow I don't mind terribly, I'm more ready to dig in on some spring cleaning-type organizing around here.  Our living room still looks like it exploded!

We have a few fun things going on this week- a belated holiday party this evening, another night out on Saturday and in between it's back to basketball practices and school meetings.  It does feel good to be back to a little bit of a routine.  Have a good week, all!
