Some January Updates

In the Pergande household, we finished off 2009 with the kids Christmas vacation. The kids had the week between Christmas and New Year's off and we tried to enjoy new things in MN. During the break, Mom and the kids visited the Bell History Museum, which is dedicated to highlighting the animals/regions of MN using large dioramas as the medium.


During this winter, the kids also took ski lessons at a place 8 minutes from our house. It's been fun watching them progress. While they are in their lessons, Mom and Dad have been able to do some skiing on their own. It's no Colorado but it's a fun family activity nonetheless.


This past week we also enjoyed Eden Prairie Hockey night where all the Mite Hockey teams played games on the outdoor ice. It was a beautiful evening with kids skating everywhere, great local food, and bonfires. This is why people grow up loving hockey. This is a picture of Canyon's hockey team. The guy in the red hat graduated from Eden Prairie High School last year but has already been drafted by the MN Wild and is currently going to University of MN.


This season, Presley has also started basketball. She has been having a blast with her own sport. Check out her great dribbling skills on her first practice day.
