Our Christmas Vacation

Jake and I had a wonderful time with his side of the family this Christmas. We started off driving to Colorado and saw Jake's brother Jared and his 2 day old baby girl. She was so tiny and precious, I forgot how small Mya once was. We stayed in Colorado for a few days then flew with Jake's parents to Wisconsin to see Jake's sister Jaime and her family on Christmas Eve. We stayed in Wisconsin for a week and a half which was a ton of fun. We went to the Museum, Fun World, had a New Years party, played lots of video games, and of course went to Kopps (Wisconsin's famous burger & custard joint)!!

I thought it was Ben and little Jacob that wanted to go to
Fun World, but really it was Simon and Jake

Jaime and Mya having fun

Smiley Mya

Lake Michigan at Simon's brother's place . I loved seeing the lake because
it reminded me so much of the ocean.

Butterfly world in the Museum. This placed freaked me out,
there is just something about being in a little room with too
many butterflies flying in your face.
(Can you tell I don't like moths/butterflies?)

The Dinosaur exhibit

Jake's favorite (probably because it was of British Columbia, Canada!!)

Waiting patiently in line at Kopps
(It was REALLY good!)
