Sledding with Ben, Cory, & Aunt Ashley






It was a cold day at Hoyt park, but we decided to give it a go anyway.  Niles would have none of it.  I even popped a whole grocery bag full of popcorn for him to eat in the shelter, but he decided to voice his concern for being cold by crying.  Should have figured that.  The big boys had a lot of fun though.  So I ended up driving around the parking lot in circles why Ben, Cory, Jay, and Ashley finished up sledding in to the trees.  I got a few questions as to why I was driving around in circles in the parking lot from the little sledders, couldn't give them an answer that would satisfy them.  When we got home we finished off the popcorn and had some hot chocolate.

Crib Reading of Carl and Winter Vilas Zoo









Hanging out at the zoo...the kids pulled Mom around the zoo the whole time.  The zoo in the winter seems as if it is your backyard, it is such a great asset to the community.   Earlier in the day Jonas hopped into Niles's crib and read him a 'Carl the dog' story (video).  Welcome 2012!
