The whole fam at the protest

My family opted to forgo lots of presents for Christmas this year and instead spent a weekend together at the Wilderness Resort in the Dells. It was so nice celebrating Christmas together without having to run all over the state to make it to all of our families' Christmas parties. We all got to the resort at around 6pm on Friday night. We had pizza, exchanged presents and pretty much relaxed for most of the night.

We have another year of Black Friday shopping under our belts! Here we are in line at Menards waiting to buy a Cricut at about 5:45 am. We ended up getting a lot of good stuff there - besides getting 2 Cricuts, we got a ShopVac, some pillows and other doodads. This was right after Todd got injured, by the way. He walked into a cement pole that was about 2 feet high while we were waiting in line around the building in the pitch dark and hit his shin pretty hard. Darn shopping injuries.

The fam on day 2 at the Blue Harbor resort. This place is awesome, btw. It is less than an hour from Milwaukee and about 2 from Madison, but once you get there, you kind of feel like you are at an coastal town in Massachusetts or something. It is gorgeous!

We celebrated Father's Day at Devils Lake on Sunday. Yes, it was a week early. Someone (ahem, Gina) thought Father's Day was on the 14th and not the 21st, so we celebrated a week early. Yes, Gina calls all the shots in the family. Juuust kidding. It ended up working out best for everyone and the weather was per-fect!

It has become somewhat of a tradition to go to Devils Lake for Father's Day. We've done it for probably about 4 years. We grill out, some peeps take a dip in the lake, we take a hike. It's always a good time.

This will be the last time I see Cooper for a while, so everyone will be spared pics of him for a few weeks. But really, would anyone mind seeing more pics of this sweet little face? I know I can't get enough of it, but I also know I am biased.

We were in Green Bay for the weekend at Gina and Todd's. We got up around 9 on Friday night and got right to Guitar Hero.

It was my first time playing.

I'm obsessed.
