Ian's 2 Year Pics

Our little boy looking so cute for his 2 year old pictures!

Snow Play

Ian finally enjoyed the snow outside by playing with Mommy and Daddy on separate occasions. Now he wants to go out a lot, but sometimes it is just TOO cold!

Here he is sitting on his favorite tree stump in-between our property and Kelli's parents'.

A video of Ian going down the slide - He calls it "Boom, Boom Slide"

Kansas Trip

Even though we didn't escape the snow, we still had a wonderful visit with Kelli's brother, Mark in Kansas.

We spent an afternoon and evening with Kelli's aunt and uncle and their three kids. Everyone played their instruments, including Ian on the drums.

Finally....some fun in the snow! Ian hasn't been a fan of playing in the snow, but he sure had a great time with Uncle Mark and Mommy building a snowman and throwing snowballs.

2 birthday tries for Mark - the first cake had no candles so we used a fork. The next day we got real candles - isn't his smile brighter?!

After all of that fun, you have to have some down time. Ian and Uncle Mark are cuddling on the couch one morning.

Golden Birthday

Kelli celebrated her 30th birthday with a surprise dinner put together by her wonderful husband! Delicious food and loving company made Kelli's day special.

A Blessed Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas this year celebrating our Lord's birth. We were together with Kelli's family Christmas morning and Matthew's family in the afternoon. What a blessing it is to be close to family!
