January

This year we stayed in Utah longer into January to help Pat celebrate his 50th Birthday! The boys wanted to take him out to do something fun, that they would always remember. They started the day by taking him out to go Ice Fishing.

When they got home we headed up to SLC and went to dinner at the California pizza Kitchen and then went over to the Hansen Planetarium to play and see the Pink Floyd Laser show.

Alyssa loved all of the different things to see and play on. This is her walking on the moon.


Pat the weather man!

After the fun weekend of celebrating it was time to head back home to Virginia. We were hit with a big snow storm and got delayed while they deIced the planes. Not the best to see this weather outside, just before you are about to get on your plane.


When we came home from our Vacation, I started to watch a little girl named Lily who is only 3 months old. We also decided that it was time to get a second car, now that I was taking Alyssa to school and driving to get this little baby. Plus we needed more room for strollers etc. We ended up getting us a Black ford escape. We love the car and I especially love the seat warmers that come in really handy in the middle of the winter. We also love that Ryan can take the car to work and school now which helps shorten his commute so we get to see him a little bit more!

Ryan also got to go take a trip to Switzerland with his Uncle Nate to snowboard the Matterhorn.
