We all learned how to tube...some of us re-learned after a 15 year hiatus!

Jordan got to go on the trip of a lifetime to China with Grandma Ginny, Katie and Maggie!
They hiked 13+ miles along the Great Wall and
took a 9 hour train ride to Xian to see the Terracotta Warriors!
Alex got a job as an assistant to the blacksmith at the Forest History Center in Hibbing, MN, he still tells us this when we tell him he needs to get to work!
September
School started again...Jordan is a 7th grader at LMS
and Alex is in his second year of preschool at Crackerjack.

A month of beautiful weather for the tundra brought lots of time to play outside and soak up all the sun to help us through the long winter!!
November
We headed south to Dubuque to see the Lynchs and Sr. Catherine.
December
LOTS of snow and outdoor fun!! Jordan tried skiing for the first time.
We celebrated Christmas with family.
Celebrated Alex's 5th birthday at the Firehall.

We had a pretty great year and had lots of fun with family and friends near and far!
Here's to a great 2011!!
