Our Life in iPhone Pics

Things are NOT settling down. It is about that time you usually recover from the holidays and things start to slow down. Well, they're not! I had a birthday, wedding countdowns are getting closer, and the house projects are taking up the weekends. We've been keeping busy with productive stuff, lazy stuff, and fun stuff!

February started with my birthday. February 2nd came with great presents and amazing meals:
Nakashima's with Dane and my family. Brode inhaled his rice!



The Melting Pot as a family birthday and valentine's dinner, just the 3 of us. Brode's first fondue experience and LOVED it.

One of my favorite birthday presents. Hand painted mug from Brode and Dane. I got clothes, gift cards, and best of all - LOTS of house stuff!

Brode has been keeping up with skating - both on the ice in the backyard and through his hockey program. We're sad to see it finish up this Wednesday.



We also found a fun afternoon to hit the sledding hill. This little boy can't get enough.

 Lastly, Brode has been busy with swimming lessons. He was begging me to get into sessions so we started again and he is doing great! This was on deep pool and water slide day.

Valentine's Day was next and we got more amazing gifts and ate to much candy. Dane and I received our toasting flutes for our wedding. Engraved with our names and Cinderella and Prince Charming! I also got beautiful roses from Dane.


We made the last minute decision to go to the Green Bay Gamblers game and it happened to be Teddy Bear Toss night. When the first goal was scored, 6,700+ bears were thrown on the ice to be donated to pediatric centers in the area. 

 Brode received a gift (read 'present' as: a wedding present that didn't wait until June) so we have been having fun playing in the basement (read 'we' as: the big boys).

House projects are taking place like crazy. A few small ones and a few big ones. We've finally got blinds, appliances, new stools, a few additional chairs, and the toys are slowly making their way over. We're almost ready for a house reveal!

Here is to a successful and busy month and to hopefully moving forward and having another 4 successful months until Wedding Day!
