Christmas at the Buske Musky Lodge

 It was a long drive up...Catie slept the whole way but Daddy didn't
 Getting ready to celebrate Bradley's 3rd birthday


 Singing Christmas caroles
 I'm still happy!!!
 Bedtime stories with Aunt Sara
 Sledding down the very steep driveway (which I got stuck on...had to have the neighbors come push the van up on Christmas Day!)


 Josh's big catch
 Fish cleaning time

 It's been a month...a little scarring but it's pretty much "all better!"
 Christmas morning

 Each girl got a new movie


 Catie got a Sophie in her stocking
 Lexie still loves to rock on the recliner...memories of being at Uncle Matt and Aunt Amy's house in Houston when Lex would rock in Uncle Matt's chair!

 These two girls just loved ice-fishing! Aubs spent pretty much the whole day on the ice with Josh...only came in close to dark after stepping into a hole and soaking her boot!





 Ice-fishing took a lot out of Lex...not sure what my excuse was but it felt good to get sleep!
 Lexie has taken to calling CJ "my baby"

 More fish cleaning!

 Since the table was occupied with fish...we had a sundae party on the floor!

CJ's first trip in the backpack!  She's growing up so fast!!

Early Christmas at the Bauer House

 Not sure what this was all about...

 Cookie decorating time!




 Lexie loves the card she and her sisters picked out for Uncle Steve (yeah, his birthday was 12/17...notice the date here, 12/20..little late this year!)
 And yes it sings...over and over and over and over

 Still fat and happy!

 Opening presents

 The girls drew names this year to exchange gifts with each other...Allie picked out this doctor's kit for Lexie
 It's a Pillow Pet!



 Catie's not sure about this...
 Aubs got CJ some fun stacking rings


 Playing doctor with daddy before bed
 Off to school...Wisconsin winter style!


 Allie's Christmas program
 Allie and Jayden teamed up to make blankets for Mrs. Mueller and her husband Peter
Not sure who was more excited here!
