I Never Update Anymore

The title says it all. By the time we get the boys to bed, the last thing I want to do is sit on the computer and rehash the day/week/month, etc.

I can't believe I didn't even write about Will's 1st birthday. We had family over and it was a lot of fun. Owen had a great time opening his presents. We all headed down to Rosemount's Haunted Trail that night. The kids were so cute dressed in the Halloween costumes.

For Will's cake, I made my first attempt at using fondant. It's wasn't terrible, but man you need to work fairly quickly because it dries out fast. I tried a new cake recipe, but wasn't a big fan. I think it was because of the 3-D pan. I will have to try it in a traditional cake pan next time.

We took a Bielke family vacation to Disneyworld in November. By Bielke, I mean Scott's parents and sister's family came too. We had a really good time. A couple of the kids were sick just before the trip, but with some meds, they got better and were able to enjoy vacation too.

We just had a HUGE blizzard over the weekend. Rosemount got about 18 inches. Thank goodness Scott decided it would be a good thing to buy a snowblower last year. It has really come in handy. Especially this year! He blew us and 3 neighbors out on Sunday morning. That doesn't count him blowing us and helping another neighbor home Saturday night. It was a group effort to get everyone out after this storm! I have no idea where the next batch of snow will end up. The snow piles are already so high. I can't believe how much snow we have and it's not even the middle of December. The snow is going to be around for a long time yet.
