Happy (belated) 30th Birthday Scott!!!

A few days late, but Scott has officially entered the 30's. I'm glad to say I am still in my 20's for a few months :)

We celebrated Scott's day with a weekend up in Hurley. Colin and I gave Scott a new snowmobile for his birthday a little early in December so what better way to celebrate the big day than with a trip to Hurley. We stayed with Jason, Melissa and Brian and had a great weekend.

Saturday we got up and headed to the Hurley house and Scott, Jason and Jim went riding for the day. Before the guys took off Colin was able to get a few rides in on the sleds and a snowplow ride with Grandpa. Here are Uncle and Colin on a ride.

Here are they guys before they were off on their ride.

Oops, Uncle got a little stuck after their ride. Scott to the rescue!

Once the guys were back we all went down to Silver Street for dinner at the Iron Nugget. Melissa and I thought it would be cute for the boys to wear matching outfits. They sure are cute together!

All of us at dinner. (I was taking the picture and Brian is asleep in his seat on the floor)

After dinner we went back to the Hurley house for cake, ice cream and opening presents.

Then the fun began. Gramma and Grandpa offered to put the boys to bed while Scott, Jason, Melissa, EB and I headed down to Silver Street to celebrate Scott's birthday at the bars. We had a great time! It's been a while since we've been out so late and had fun like that!

Here we all are.

Sunday morning we hung out with Jason, Melissa and Brian and watched Brian try cereal. It was so fun to watch him try to eat it.

Then we all went to the Hurley house for some outside fun in the snow with Colin and Brian. Here are a few of my favorite pictures of them.

And, last but not least, Scott built a little jump for his sled. Here is a video of that. Colin wants to know when he gets to jump. I think that can wait for a few years!

HAPPY 30th BIRTHDAY SCOTT!!!!!

Sesame Street Live

Big night for us last night, we went to Sesame Street Live: Elmo's Green Thumb. It was great. Nanny, Papa, Gramma, Scott and I were all there to see the excitement in Colin's eyes. It was so much fun. Colin said his favorite part was all the dancing. The story line was really cute and Colin sat and watched the show so intensely while eat ting his popcorn, it was so cute. And of course there were times when he got up and showed us his great dancing moves. He's quite the dancer! Here are a few pictures from the night.




Colin's prize purchase, a $15 flashlight, crazy price, but his smile was worth it!

Preschool

Wow, I can't believe it, but we signed Colin up for Preschool this week. He will be going 2 days a week during the school year next year on Monday's and Wednesday's. I still can't believe that my baby is old enough to be going to preschool. He will be going to Children's Country Preschool at our church in Hanover. Colin is so excited. When I told him I had signed him up he asked if he was going now. He is so ready for it. And hopefully his friend Carson from across the street will be in the same class as Colin. They will have so much fun together.

Snow, Snow, Snow

This past weekend we were at my parent's cabin. We headed up on Friday for a weekend of fun in the snow and snowmobiling. Auntie Stacy and Joe joined us as well. There was plenty of snow for all of us to have fun and get a lot of riding in. We officially took our first family ride with Colin. He loved it! He rides with Scott on his sled and doesn't even mind his helmet. I can tell my little boy is really growing up. It seemed like it would be forever when he was born that all 3 of us would be able to go riding together. What fun! Here are a few pictures.


Daddy and Colin riding Colin's sled on the lake. Or as Colin said "We are walking on the pool."



We stopped to warm up at a coffee shop and had something to drink and a cookie. Guess who loved the cookie!



Here we are ready to get back on the sleds for our ride home.
