Our Annual Winter trip to the Dells....

On our way to the Wisconsin Dells...

We don't have a drop down TV like the newer cars, so we bring our laptop and let the boys watch movies or play their playstation. ahhh. makes the trip so much easier on us...




Zack on the lazy river, his natural habitat...relaxing...


Daddy and Josh, "What's that face for Josh?"



The boys heading up the slide...


At first, the boys thought this was a baby ride, but because there was noone around, the man kept giving them longer rides.. they ended up enjoying themselves more than they thought..


Outside Hambird's Cheese.


Daddy and Nick about to play some serious games...


Winter Fun...

The boys are piling on Zack's new snow donut and going down the little hill that Chris makes for them in our backyard every year with his snowblower....



Zack, Nick, and our neighbor Connor.










Christmas 2010 ...Happy Birthday Jesus !!!

We spent christmas afternoon with Nana and Papa.. The boys all got really fun and playful things from them.. We are glad they are here for some of the holidays...

The boys opening their gifts from Nana and Papa

Daddy blowing up Zack's Snow tube, the other two boys realllllly wanted a snowboard for christmas, but not Zack, he wanted a "snow donu" he calls it...


Nana telling the boys about something...=)





My fireplace decorated in nutcrackers, which we collect and have collected for years..We have quite a few already.. Zack started the tradition when he was one years old and carried the nutcracker with him everywhere he went, he wouldn't let me put it up for christmas.


Robin Search, a dear friend of mine, lost her mother to cancer last year.. as she was going through her mother's stuff, she came upon these 4 adorable nutcrackers and knew we collected the.. needless to say, she sent them to us for a present.. they were a nice addition...


here are Robin's nutcrackers up close...



Chris opening his backpack from the boys...




Josh getting his new snowboard, unfortunatly it's a blurry picture of Zack...


The boys opening their stockings..

Sweet, adorable, cute little milkshake, thinking about jumping in the tree and climbing it..

Nick turned 8, my baby is growing up...

My Nicholas William turned eight... What a joy he is to be around, a joy to everyone.. He is kindhearted , affectionate and boy do his brothers spoil him. They both think he is cute, and he is very loving, very sweet and very well rounded.. He is good at whatever he puts his mind to. Did I say he is also anal.. He likes things clean and neat.. YES !!!!



The infamous penguin cake.. Nick saw the cake at Walmart and had to have a club penguin birthday theme.. Well another child who wants a cake I don't have to make.. I added the swedish fish, though.. we thought it was a nice touch..


Aren't they cute sliding down the hills...








Nick really wanted this penguin for his birthday as to stick with the penguin theme.. He sleeps with him every night.. He calls him poptop which is what his penguin on club penguin is called.


munching on one of the lollipops from the Lollipop bouguet mommy got him..

Here we are at Americinn in stillwater,MN.. Nick wanted to keep in line with the water and penguin theme, so we rented the party room at the hotel..


All boys with no shirts on eating pizza and laughing.. Brian Donohoo is next to Zack, then Vitaly Brown was there, Graham Pelton , Jake , Josh Leslie and Josh Burow.. They had so much fun swimming and playing games..


Cool Dude, except for the pizza smears...=) He is still 8 after all...


One of his closest pals, Brian Donohoo


He's about to dig into those swedish fish (that I added =)



We played a dug bobbing game, Nick and I put it together.. You had to match the numbers under the duck and if you got a match, you won a prize.. Josh squirted mommy and boy did they laugh..



The big 8 with the penguin sliding down, they are so cute.


Opening Gifts, all boy toys..club penguin cards and more.

King Of The Hill....

Their Daddy is the best and funnest daddy, I think because he still thinks like a child in terms of play, that makes him fun.. Every year he snowblows all the snow into one big pile so the boys can play King of the Hill and OF COURSE every boy the in the neighborhood wants to come to the Burow household, not so good sometimes....







Making Fun forts, this is small in comparison to the amount of snow we got after this..



the mound is much bigger now, but this was the first round of snow, you can see how tall it was compared to Zach..





ahhhh.... everyone stuck inside their little homes, warm and toasty until you have to plow your way out to get toilet paper.....=)
