Cody the 15 Year Old

So....since CodyOdina is the one who makes the cakes in the house, we bought an icecream cake for her birthday. Interestingly, we kept it out in the garage to keep it cold. But on their birthdays, mom makes whatever meal they request for their dinner. Cody wanted spicy chicken wings and fruit pizza. Here is the fruit pizza!

A little Warmer Snow Fun

We had a couple of days of 20-30 degree weather and bright sunshine. The kids went outside and played!

Bowling with Vern

After pizza we went bowling.


Cody tried....













Victoria tried.....

But little known fact - Vern took bowling as PE in highschool. So, Vern won....

Jared the Bowler

Jared tried so hard at bowling. These are wonderful pictures of his efforts!

Pizza Anyone?

We were supposed to go to Sioux Falls to celebrate Jared's birthday, but it snowed! So, we went to pizza.....

Jared is 9

We celebrated Jared's 9th birthday this month! Again, Cody made a fantastic cake.

Wally Ball Anyone?

That same night, New Year's Eve, Victoria chose to play a bit of Wally Ball!

Ice Skating in the Cold

For New Year's Eve we went to a skating party hosted by the Evangelical Free Church
