February 2023

We were blessed with a lot of snow (and a little ice!) this month. Which made for some very good sledding! Both Bryndel & Piper wrapped up their winter basketball season, and Hadley's show choir season is almost over. 

Grandma even got to catch a few games!

Even Aunt Nancy made to one of Hadley's competitions with Grandma!

Bryndel celebrated her 10.5 birthday at school.

What a beautiful winter we've had, but it's probably time for spring!

January 2023

The new year is off to a great start!

We've been enjoying our new back parcel of land, which seems perfect for snowmobiling!

Kyle and Piper took in a Packer playoff game! 

Bryndel has been using her long legs out on the BB court to hustle really fast.

Hadley's show choir season is in full swing!

Our Christmas shuffle board finally arrived, and we've been enjoying it while Kyle finishes the basement space.

We mourned Glenn's death from ALS on January 31st, but celebrated his new life in heaven. We loved having him part of the Graham Family. It was far too short, but we are so thankful he is heaven with his savior and is no longer suffering.

December 2022

We wrapped up 2022 with much anticipation and celebration of Jesus' birth. The girls made Ninjabread men to bring to the Graham Family Christmas. We enjoyed special cousin time!

We visited Oma in her new Memory Care facility.

And I got to twin with my mom! The cousins were treated to matching jammies of course.

We missed Kenzie girl, as she had to stay home with strep. 

We were treated to not one but two separate snow days and two late starts in December! One of which was the perfect day to decorate sugar cookies. We found lots of time to sled as well!

We spent a fun day up North celebrating Christmas with Grandma A and Auntie Kara.

And then hunkered in to get ready for Christmas. 

We had a blessed Christmas Eve at church, and a quiet Christmas day at home remembering what our day was really about.

Merry Christmas!

November 2022

Hadley turned 16 this month and got her driver's license! Grandma and I took her for an overnight shopping excursion to celebrate.

Her friends came over for a little birthday surprise.

Piper and I got a little Christmas shopping started.

We celebrated Thanksgiving with the cutest little Andersons: Zeke & Brett.

Then we celebrated with Grandma & Glenn.

An uneventful hunting week, but a successful Christmas tree hunt!

Auntie Bev came over to help us trim our tree!

We were blessed this month with the opportunity to purchase an adjoining parcel of land at the back of our property! More land to explore, hunt, and hike together ❤️ 

Sweet 16

 

Happy, happy 16th birthday sweet Hadley!! You have turned up the happiness factor in our family since the day you were born. We sure love you❤

October 2022

It was another beautiful fall month living out on our land! Such a treat to see the hills and valleys with so much color.

I had the privilege of helping move Oma into Memory care.

Lots of hunting going on!

Piper's BB crew had a fun team dinner at our house before the season kicked off.

And Bryndel dressed up as Pippi Longstocking for Halloween.
