A Little of Kentucky right here in WI

The Nicholsons visited us today. How fun and how much we miss them. Just love cousins playing together. If only we or they lived a little closer. Rylee and James stayed close to Moms as they sensed another baby in the family was near. They wanted to make sure their Mom didn't give too much attention to the other one. Uncle Matt of coarse wrestled with all the kids. We missed them the minute they walked out the door.

As if not busy enough

Why not throw gymnastics in there too. Both Elizabeth and Cierra loved gymnastics. It was every Saturday morning so quite the commitment. Some older girls had their practice at the same time which really inspired Elizabeth and Cierra to go, go go. Elizabeth's favorite was the balance beam - believe or not she had to overcome a fear of the high beam. Cierra was just spectacular on the bar. We hope to do it all again!

Brooklyn is Blessed

Jimmy was able to bless Brooklyn on this beautiful but bitter cold day. He was a bit nervous but did a fabulous job, she is so blessed to have a Daddy like him! Many of Jimmy's family and the Rieds as well as Grandma Gretchen made it up for the occasion.
