Christmas 2012

Ice Skating at The Depot Minneapolis

The boys utilized "trainers" to help them skate at The Depot, downtown Minneapolis.  I am not certain how well I can skate since it's been so long; so I stayed off the ice this time.  Jamie promised to take me on a date so I can relearn how to skate.  I didn't like being on the sidelines!

Love Love Love

I am so in love with these two boys...

Happy 4th Birthday Riley Myles

The boys

Dad was away for the weekend, so the boys and I went to the Children's museum in Saint Paul.  We came home and had McDonald's for lunch.

Halloween

In case you are not a Transformers fan, the boys are dressed as "Bumble Bee" and "Optimus Prime".

Fall Fun

Pumpkin Patch

Saturday afternoon was spent at PineHaven Farms in Wyoming MN with the boys and grandma Menne.

Grandpa Dennis

Grandmpa Dennis, aunt Laura and uncle Brian came down to Prior Lake for dinner a few weekends ago.

Redneck Swimming

The boys didn't have their swim trunks; T-shirts and underwear were sufficient.

Square Lake Half Triathlon

Another notable achievement for Mr. Halverson.  Reagan, Riley and Cousin Delaney escorted Jamie past the paparazzi and on to the finish line.

1.2 mile swim > 54 mile bike ride > 13 mile run

Brothers don't shake hands...

Brothers gotta hug...

Gymnastics Class

The boys have been attending gymnastics class for about a year.  They are pictured here with their favorite instructor Sasha.

Prayer

No more diapers

A new Spiderman bike was Riley's reward for going potty in the big potty.  No more diapers! A memorable day indeed.

Another Mini-Tri

Kiddy Parade

I found these pictures recently.  My mom used to put my brother and I in the "kiddy parade" when we lived in Hutchinson MN.
