Trip to Milwaukee - 1

Since Sam was able to sell a whole lot of popcorn for Cub Scouts, he was awarded free tickets to a number of sporting events (though we still had to buy 3 tickets for the rest of us). This weekend we went to a Milwaukee Admirals game and ended up with really good seats near the ice. Before heading to the Admirals game, we went to the Milwaukee Public Museum to see the traveling dinosaur exhibit they are currently hosting. We also looked at the rest of the museum after we finished with the dinosaurs.

Basketball

Both Sam and Max played basketball this year. Max's concentrated on skill building and Sam was part of a team of boys from his grade and had a couple coaches and they played games at different school around the area for about 4 months. They also had regular practices every week. For the first year of organized basketball, their team went 20 and 4!

Christmas 2015

The boys had a great time visiting with their family on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Gifts were exchanged and goodies were eaten in large quantities. Christmas morning was spent building Lego sets. Max received his first big Lego set.

Sam's 9th Birthday

Sam turned 9 this year. He and a few friends went to see the newest Star Wars movie in the theater and went for pizza afterwards. They dressed as characters from the Star Wars movie. He also celebrated with his family a couple days before.
