Meeting theTwins

This week Lou and I took a vacation to Wisconsin Dells. We left the Dells and headed to Merrill to meet Victoria and Nicholai and visit with Jim, Jackie and the boys.

We brought the little ones a Halloween hat, and were amused how big those "little" hats looked on the tiny babies.

The boys were very good at taking care of their little brother and sister. Victor amused us by kissing Nick three times and then letting Nick suck on his nose.

Of course, I got to hold the babies for quite some time. I was fearful that they would cry, but Victoria fell asleep while I was holding her for at least 30 minutes... so cool.

Trying to get Nick to smile at me was challenging-as soon as he smiled-he looked away. But, he is such a cute little guy with red hair and bright blue eyes.

Since Dad is growing a beard, I asked him to get close enough to see Nick's reaction. The picture below speaks volumes.

Vince is getting ready to go off to college next Fall. He continues to be a very popular bagger at Dave's County Market.

Although we really wanted to visit with Roman, he spent most of our visit napping. Oh, to be young again.

Dad has been busy getting ready for the long winter. Along with making several different types of beers, cooking and dealing with the day to day activities of 9 children, he has been chopping wood.The woodpile below should last them until March.

Hope to see them again in Spring.
