We had a wonderful trip to Omaha just before the end of the year. After a couple day weather delay we loaded up the car and were off. The boys were very excited to see their cousins. "Can we just unload and then go to their house?" Charlie wondered on the way down. The closer we got to Omaha, the deeper the snow in the ditch. The trees along the sides of the road were covered in a thick layer of ice that sparkled in the sun. It was a beautiful drive.
When we arrived Charlie was overjoyed to see all of the snow and shoveling that needed to be done. He loved Grandpa D's plow shovel and spent the time each day outside shoveling the driveway, sidewalks, and back patio.
The boys were able to play with all of their cousins over our 4 day stay. There was time for Crazy 8 and other games. Some Lego building, lots of hide and seek, and lots of fun. Ben had fun showing off his new attempts at walking - hands high.
Each night the boys were exhausted and dreaming of more shoveling, snow, and fun.
Ben was spoiled by all. Sucker from grandpa and cuddles from everyone. Being the youngest brings some nice perks.
