Anniversary Fun

Our Anniversary

Since our last post. . .
Susie and I celebrated our fourth anniversary. We spent the day at home and had a nice dinner with Brayden. The day before we took him to Underwater Adventure at the MOA. He kind of liked the fish and sharks, but he was way more interested in the giant sandbox they have in the atrium. We were going to take him on Valentines day, but the weathermen and women had predicted a crippling snowstorm that ended up in a total of six flakes. Oh well. Over the weekend, Susie and I went down to Spirit Lake and stayed in a condo on Lake Okiboji from Friday until Monday. Brayden had a blast staying with Grandpa Denny and Grandma Jeanie. We had a really great time getting away for a while, we haven't done that since the packer game.
It was pretty cold and windy, so we stayed in for most of the trip, but they had a great restaurant, game room, and mini golf on site. Plus we played a lot of big buck hunter.

At the Farm

At the farm

Yesterday we went to Grandpa and Grandma Lange's house for the day to visit. Grandma had surgery on Monday, and was a little sore, but happy to see Brayden. Grandpa Dan had the vet coming out to do blood work on the alpacas, so we spent the afternoon sorting and testing the animals. It was kind of strange, since I really haven't done that sort of work since college.
Brayden had a blast. He was waiting all week to see his grandparents and loved playing with the dogs and cats and looking at the alpacas. He was a little to scared to play with them though.
We were also able to stop in and see Great Grandma Peggy and Great Grandpa Sam. We didn't get to see them over Christmas since grandma was sick, so Brayden was really happy to visit and have some cookies with them.
