More sledding fun.....

Today we went to Mom & Dad's for some sledding fun. Decided to pull the 4-wheeler out and give it a try as some of the snow was melted (not so good for old fashioned sledding). Chloe brought a friend and Gwen and the boys went too. Poor Lauren has a bad cough so she stayed at the house with Nanny.

Bracing for the freezing temps expected over the next few days - love the snow though! Thanks Dad for all the fun today!! :)

Sledding Fun!


Today we decided to do some sledding. Mike & I took the girls on Sunday to Chloe's school to sled and forgot the camera. Today I remembered it! The girls & I went with Marie, Gwen, Josh & Jacob. Josh and Jacob hadn't been sledding before. They (We-specifically Gwen & I) had a great time too! Planning on more sledding in the days ahead! :)

Becksted Family Christmas


Today we celebrated Christmas with Mike's family. We always have a fun time when we get together, today was no exception. I thought today as I looked around...wow, we are all out of the baby/toddler phase. A little sad I must say. I miss those days when we had babies laughing or even crying. Mike's sisters Pam, Gwen & I were all pregnant at the same time at one point. Pam had Isaac in July, I had Chloe in Sept and then Gwen had Josh in Nov. That was neat to share the pregnancy experience with them. Then on another time, Mike's sisters Pam & Carla were both pregnant at the same time then had their babies (naturally) on the same day! I know we are all getting older, glad we are still having fun and appreciating one another. We are grateful for wonderful loving family that loves and supports each other through life's ups and downs! :)
