Winter Vacation

Papa took my family to Kalahari Resorts outside Sandusky, OH for a winter getaway. It's the largest indoor waterpark in the USA. 5/6 of my siblings were there including Tony, Joey, their families, as well as Alissa, Gabby, and Gino. (Missed you Tina) There was a bunch of cool waterslides, a wavepool, and indoor surfing. My favorite was the slide that was like being flushed down a toilet. I was so proud of the girls for riding all the big slides, especially Sam. What a daredevil! We had a blast! Thanks Papa!

Sam's 8th Birthday

We took Sam out for a birthday "brinner" on Fri. 1/9/09. The next day she had a sledding party with all her friends to celebrate turning 8 years old. It was a lot of fun with only a few mishaps. (one crash & one bloody nose) What were we thinking having it when there was a full moon?!? Afterwards, her grandparents and a few cousins came over for round two of sledding and pizza. Happy 8th Birthday Sam!

Super Sledding Sisters

Scott builds a sled track every Winter from the top of our neighbor's driveway to the sidewalk in our front yard. (our neighbor lives above us on a steep hill so the track goes through both our yards) The girls spend hours outside sledding and playing in the snow. All the neighborhood kids come over too and it's so much fun. It melts a few times but Scott just rebuilds it. What a great dad!

Girls Basketball Rocks

Sam's basketball season ended with an ice cream social and awards ceremony. The girls ate, played, and got their faces painted before going to the varsity girls' basketball game. It was a great season and she can't wait to play again next year. Go Northview Wildcats!
