Big Weekend

So, my husband is awesome!!!! :) Both Chelsey and I got a big surprise on Friday afternoon when Andy came home from work early to let us know that we needed to pack our bags for Wisconsin Dells!!! We were so excited, and so was Drew, who has been asking to go on the "wee-waters" -- translation: water slides -- for at least a week now.

Although Drew was so excited about the waterslides, when it actually came down to going on one, he chickened out :) Most of the time he was content to crawl around in the little kid area like this.

This is how Grant happily spent most of the trip :) What a happy baby he is!!

Andy & Drew. This resort we went to (The Wilderness Resort) was awesome! It feels weird to be in a swimming suit doing the waterslide thing when you look out the windows to see snow and 17 degree weather :)
The real reason for the trip was for Chelsey's 19th birthday (which was on Sunday). Happy birthday to Chelsey!!! (who is Andy's sister for those of you who are wondering :) We've loved having her live with us for a little while. She is such a happy, helpful, fun, cheerful girl-- can't get enough of her!!! Thanks for all you do to help out, Chel!

Grant and the birthday girl

Last but definitely not least was Grant's blessing at church yesterday. What a special blessing it was! I feel so blessed to have these sweet, adorable, precious little boys in my family, as well as having a husband who is worthy to bless our children so. Andy is such a great dad who loves his boys with all his heart!! Family is a gift from our Heavenly Father, for sure!!!!
