Sledding on Thanksgiving Day


David took the girls out sledding for Thanksgiving

Adriana had a heck of a time getting her stuff on

Alexis was able to control herself

After everyone was bundled up...

They hit the hills

Adriana went down...

Alexis went down...


They were 2 crazy sledding fools



No better way to celebrate the holiday,
except eat lots of warm turkey when they got home

Claire's Play


Adriana and Lori attended Claire's Play of Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer

Claire played the "tomboy" who hung out and skipped school,
with Huck and Tom

Adriana was able to give Claire a flower,
and grab a quick picture with the star

MOA with Melenie


Melenie, Brian, and Elena came up to Minnesota

Here is Alexis waiting for Melenie in front of Macy's
at the Mall of America

We went to Nickelodeon Universe
and it was practically EMPTY

Elena was too adorable and wanted to hold
Alexis' hand

Alexis rode this ride 3 times,
and was the only rider for 2 of the 3 times

Elena and Melenie

Alexis rode this twice,
she got off and got right back on...
NO LINES

We were there for about 4 hours,
Elena hung in there as best she could

Tis the Season for F-U-N

Grand Opening Celebration


Lori had the pleasure,
of joining the Zenn family for...

Grand Opening Celebration
for the Children's Hospital Minneapolis

It was amazing,
and Becky gave a wonderful speech

1st Snow Fall


The 1st snow fall of the year,
brought 6 inches

Papa's flight to Minnesota was delayed 3 hours

Those snowballs were HEAVY

While Alexis rested,
Adriana decided to put the sled to helpful use.

It was not working out too well

Team work was needed

Oops! Adriana pulled so hard, she fell

Big Pancake


While Alexis took a bath,
Lori cooked her a BIG pancake

It should have made at least 4 pancakes

She was clean and ready to eat

She didn't eat very much though

It took Lori 2 hours to snack on the rest,
before it was gone
