Winter adventures part 1

So bad at blogging.....seriously.  I'm such a cluster blogger....We went on vacay to Nebraska for Christmas and that was almost life-changing for me.  I spend so much time in the house and have felt sorta....I knew that my brother and sister-in-law were amazing and that they had adorable kids but being there with them was so fun, and inspiring for me that even now I can't wait to go back to visit.  Getting to know my nieces was so so fun and I miss them and the rest of my nieces and nephews a bunch!  I get a little weepy just thinking of all the time that I don't get to spend with them.  I learned all kinds of great cleaning tips and habits that I have since implemented.  Lots of pictures coming your way.

Here are a few pics from our trip.

This is one of the few patches of snow they had when we got there.  The kids were looking forward to huge amounts of snow and it never did snow while we were there.  Sure did get cold though.  Cousin E is on the end.  She is adorable and so fun!

Hot cocoa for the road from the Coco-motion hot cocoa maker.  It was DI-VINE!

At the zoo...chillin.
Ethan being a ninja.  He loves his new cape.


Cousins...

This is why they are AWESOME.
The Zoo in Omaha is A-MAZING!  One of the many pictures I took.
Playing the Christmas bells on Christmas Eve.  Yes I know these pics are in random order.

Needless to say we had the time of our entire year and we did a bunch more.  Movies, pizza (gluten free of course) parks, presents, animals, and Gingerbread exhibit and making our own ginger bread houses.  Brian and Sara were gracious, patient and the perfect hosts.  Thanks again guys!  We loved just spending time with family.  We miss you!
