Finding the Fun Indoors

With the extreme cold temperatures and never ending snow, we have tried to find activities indoors to do this winter as well.

Andy and our friend, Sam, took a trip the Lake of the Woods this winter.  Eva and I took the kids to Pump It Up in Shakopee for a day of fun in the big inflatables and balls.  They had a blast.  We were there for hours and packed a "picnic" lunch.  We took a good bath when we got home, but they were tired.  Eva and I were laughing on our way out because as we were walking, Aiden's eyes were closing.  How can you fall asleep walking?  It was a success!






We also cleaned out our closets and organized the drawers.  He wanted to wear this to preschool.  I look like a "professional football player" Mom! 



While Andy and the other Dad's were away on another fishing trip, the Mom's and kids (11 total) got together at a friend's house for a play date. It was a great time, but I am totally looking forward to Mom's weekend away in March!






I got to take a field trip the Children's Theater with Carter and Alex through Preschool to see the play "Hungry Hungry Caterpillar".  I have never seen anything like it before, I was amazed!  The bus ride was also fun since we were the first ones on the bus, we got to choose our seats first.  The boys insisted on the back seat!  




With all the snow days this winter, we were thankful for some indoor activities such as the Kiwi Crates from Uncle Nate and Aunty Abby.  We also played with play dough, legos, went to dinner, the Lego movie, played with the Wii and with other indoor toys.






Oh! Did I mention we all had the flu at some point this winter. Ugh.
Kindergarten shots for my big boy!















With all that said...Winter, we are done.  We enjoyed all your activities and it is time for you to leave. Bring on Spring!
