At the skatepark

Went to the Lakeshore Skatepark today. Riley wore his blades while Zach used his skateboard. At only 38 degrees, we had the park all to ourselves for most of the time. Zach was nearly fearless as he tackled the whole park. Riley used a lot a caution... and his knees to get up the ramps.

Also on Christmas break

We got to the Field Museum for a day over break. Riley especially loves going there and soaks it all in. The high temperature that day was 16 degrees. Yikes!

Christmas

We headed over to Vermont to see some of Jill's family for Christmas. Had a great time and the boys enjoyed the snow. But the weather didn't slow us down as we drove nearly 900 miles in one day to make it home just before an ice storm hit Chicago.
