We just got back from Wisconsin on Monday, we celebrated Christmas with the Van Brocklin family and had alot of fun. Anna enjoyed opening and playing with all her toys, she also liked interacting with Andy's Aunt and Uncles dog Rosco, as well as the other children on Christmas. There was quit a bit of snow the first few days but it got better as the days went by, except for lingering fog that made driving home one night from a fish fry really challenging for his parents since the visibilty was only around a foot. Anna was such a champ at travel, we were afraid she would get fussy but she didn't.

We got into Wisconsin at about 11 p.m., our flight was delayed two hours because they had to shut the Milwaukee airport down for a couple hours due to the weather. On Tuesday we spent Christmas Eve with Anna's great Grandma Van Brocklin, she cooked us a wonderful dinner and we exchanged gifts. On Christmas Andy's parents had the whole family over and we ate, exchanged gifts and went downstairs to the bar for some drinks. Friday we went to Kopps (Andy's favorite restaurant b/c of their custards), then we went to a fish fry that night. Saturday Andy's parent's babysitted Anna while we went and saw the movie Yes Man, it was a cute movie and we were glad to get out and see a movie which we do not get to do much, when we got back we found out our poor Anna had a cold :(. Sunday we watched football and then ordered pizza that night. It is so funny because Anna slept in her pack and play so good there but does not sleep as well at home, it takes a lot longer for her to fall asleep at home than it does for her to fall asleep there, it took her 5 minutes there, I was amazed. Anna's cold is finally starting to clear up, I hope mine will clear up soon.

I wanted to post a pic with Anna and her Aunt Tracy and great grandma Van Brocklin but those pics are on a seperate video card that I am a having a hard time uploading.
