February 2022

 Mason did a great job at his concert.

Dorian is in choir this semester so it was fun to go to his concert at Unity.

Nathan gave the boys an outing of their choice for Christmas and Mason picked going to Air Madness and to the Pizza Ranch buffet!  They had a lot of fun together in Sioux Falls.

Whew!  That was a hard puzzle.  Credit goes to Nathan and Mason for the vast majority of it.

We have a heated garage!  Excited to play ping pong in a warm garage when it was only 17 degrees outside!  That also means the vehicles aren't as cold, woodworking projects can happen during the winter, etc.  Winters are so cold here.

Mason had fun building the birdhouse that Grandpa and Grandma Tintle sent to him for Valentine's Day!

Levi really enjoyed his days of minimesters at school!  Oragami, drumline and robotics.

The boys had a couple of days off from school for President's Day weekend so we enjoyed some time as a family at the cabin.

Skiing for the day at Mount Kato was fun!

The boys went ice fishing on East Lake Okoboji with Paul and Jacob.

We spotted deer walking across the lake!

Ice fishing on Little Spirit Lake!  First time catching a fish through the ice on Little Spirit.  Nathan said he drilled about 70 holes!

Mason and Levi went swimming at Bridges Bay.

Woodworking projects are underway.  Levi is making a pinewood derby car.

Dorian is making book ends.

Thanks to Grandpa for sharing his tools and expertise with us!

Mason and Levi frequently have Bible verses to memorize.  

I spent a day in Sioux Falls mostly waiting for work to be done on the Pilot.  Enjoyed coffee using the gift card Dorian gave me for Christmas! 

The boys love their dog.

Mason enjoyed making a pinball game at school.
