Hello 2015 - ROADTRIP!

How does the Meyer Family start 2015?

The right way...with a FAMILY adventure to Leavenworth!

We packed up the truck and headed East for a couple days in our favorite Bavarian village with all the kids! Snow, Fun, Family and much needed relaxation!

Brag alert...our kiddos are such good travelers...the boys have always been great and Miss M proved to be amazing too! We are super lucky that they just "go with the flow" and are successfully earning their respective badges are ROAD WARRIORS!

We arrived in town and immediately went to one of our favorite spots for some mexi-lunch!

Filled up and ready to play in the snow...time to bundle up!

Snow gear on and ready to attempt the "BIG" hill!

Mommy and Millie!

Cute as a button and a little red from the cold!

All smiles for his ride in the snow!

Mommy and Millie even got to join in on the fun!

Mommy isn't the best on the sled...

Pre-crash!

Crashed and Burned. Sorry G. After this, he said he didn't want to ride with Mommy anymore...I guess I can understand why!

Back on the sled and all smiles!

Just riding through town...isn't this normal!

Grammy J babysat the kiddos while Rich and I got to have a little alone time!

Power hour with my love!

Cheers! We have 59 minutes to go!

We repaid the favor with a little "babysitting" of our own. Miss Lola and Buster hung out for a bit in our room!

Selfie with my little man!

Dinner with these 2!

Griffin took up a new hobby...fishing for monkeys with Grandpa M.

A little outside time at our favorite brewery!

G and his "coffee"!

Mommy and Daddy are a little obsessed these days...and so G has developed his own desire for "coffee"!

The Duck Drop...probably had to be there!

Precious little lady...hey, where's my Waffle?

Mommy and Chukar cuddling on the trip home!

Not a ton of pictures from the weekend...but it was a fun-filled family adventure! An awesome way to kick of 2015 and realign our priorities!

Wrestle-mania 2015 has begun.

2 points for Griffin with the take-down.

1 point for Millie for the steal!

December in Review

I'm not sure where December went...but it was here, and now it's gone. Somewhere during the month we managed to enjoy some special holiday events, relax, celebrate and see our little baby Millie turn into a BIG girl. She has changed so much in a matter of a month, that it seems like she is a different kiddo. Such a happy little lady and sleeping so good now! Yeah!

Mini-photo shoot on a random Monday! Hello World, Millie is ready for her close up!
