Winter Games 2020

 This year we got a late start to enjoying the games on the ice due to a basketball tournament for Marie.  But don't worry, these kids still got to experience some fun!

 After walking around the ice and people watching, we attended church, grabbed some snacks, and went back out to enjoy night sledding and the big bonfire.  

 This was the first year for them seeing the Burning of the Greens and they loved it! 

 These 3 love all seasons but there is just something special about winter...especially up here on the lake.

After the games we went ice fishing again...not as lucky as last year but man that fish was good!

Coyotes Win

 We enjoyed a quick getaway to Vermillion to watch the women's and men's basketball team win!

Eddie and Jess joined us with their boys and the kids loved running around the new arena and even playing on the court after the game.  

 After the game the kids swam until the passed out and the adults talked and laughed until they passed out.  It was a great way to break up our cold January!

New Year's Eve

 

Parties are great, but speeding down a hill in a tube is our kind of way to welcome in the New Year. 

It was a bit chilly, but we survived with some hand and toe warmers.  Marie didn't love it due to the cold toesies, but she was a trooper for the first half.  

 

Bennett never looked back or waited for anyone...he just kept going up and down, up and down. 

Brooks was sweating by the end of the night!  

After we warmed up with some dinner, we walked through a beautiful light display in Mankato on its last night.  

At home we warmed up by the fire and toasted to a New Year.
