Sioux City New Year's

We finally made it to Sioux City on New Year's Eve to celebrate our Christmas with Frank and Linda. And, we got to stay all the way until Sunday, which is a miracle in itself since we never get to stay that long.

We had a good time hanging out, shopping, watching football and all that good stuff. Aaron and I even got to go on a date to a movie and for supper Saturday night, so a big thanks to Frank and Linda for allowing us to do that!

Here are some photos from Sioux City:

Jenna modeling her new apron: Warning - Chef in Training. Perfect for her since she always loves to help in the kitchen.

One of the places I loved to go when we lived in Sioux City was the Art Center. It was just a cool place to go and look at exhibits. They had a kids room and I always said when I had kids I wanted to take them there, so we all bundled up and headed down there on Saturday morning.


Jenna and Brody playing with the legos.


The kids loved these unique blocks that were in unique shapes (you can see the feet!). Brody's favorite part was knocking them over.


They had giant mirrors and markers that the kids could color on.

Random sidenote: We had some crazy run-ins with wildlife while on our visit. On our way into town we saw two does just standing in the middle of the street about a block from Frank and Linda's house. We also forgot about the amount of wild turkeys that are in the area. We saw them in a couple different yards and another time just walking down the middle of the street. Weird, since we were in the middle of town.
