Almost here!

We got a lot of snow just in time for Christmas vacation! Grandma and Grandpa Nielsen arrived and we are ready to party! The kids spent hours in the snow building forts and snowmen, Conor loved trying out the new to us snow blower.  We started eating lots of Christmas goodies, and we were especially impressed with this enormous box of chocolates from a piano student.  We had no trouble polishing this box off.  After a little more baking, we took the family ice-skating.  We skated for a few hours and then we went to see the lights at River Front Park get some good eats at Panera and then we checked out this breath taking tree full of lights.  I didn't want to leave.  Thanks to the person who took the time to put these lights up for us to enjoy.
