Hawkeye Basketball Game 2010


We went to see Herky and the Hawks play Ohio State last night. Daddy took Addilyn to El Cactus restaurant. We had virgin strawberry margaritas and chicken tacos. Then, off to the game. It was like playing Where's Waldo (except it was Where's Herky?). All night long Addilyn spotted Herky in the arena. She really loves sporting events. She especially loves it when the crowd cheers! She loves to dance, sing, and conduct the orchestra when they play. And we had to have popcorn and ice cream... of course! So much fun, and such a treat. The Hawks did lose, but you can't tell by all the cheering we did!

Art Museum

We went to the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art on Family Fun Day last weekend. We made artwork with coloring books, tape, and fruit loops! It's still too cold to be outside, so we stayed indoors and made art!

Winter in Iowa








It's definitely winter in Iowa. With temperatures below zero, all we have been doing since Christmas is stay inside, play with new toys, and look at the cold weather and the icicles outside. It is starting to warm up, just in time for the Vikings to play in the playoffs. Go Vikings!

New Kitchen Set!

Daddy finally had a chance to put the kitchen set together this morning. We took down the Christmas tree to make room for it. Addilyn loves it! She calls it her "kitchen." She especially enjoys brewing coffee for daddy and stirring soup on the stove.
