In keeping with traditions, we spent the first part of our Wisconsin Christmas in Sun Prairie at my parents house. We opened presents in the morning followed by a Christmas breakfast. Grandma Marge came over and we hung out all day chatting.
Notice Max is almost as tall as Grandma Marge!
It snowed that night and Max was excited to watch out the window, but only for a bit because it was pretty late. The next day it was exciting for him to get out in the snow.
We kept with traditions and headed to Cascade to go tubing. Due to COVID they required us to schedule a two-hour time slot and they only allowed a certain number of people to purchase tickets in each time slot. This kept the attendance down and we never had a line. This allowed us to go down the hill many times in that two hours. So many times that I was ready to leave after 1.5 hours and Max was pretty exhausted too. I guess that's one good thing with COVID, it keeps people away and reduces crowds.
We got to see Tayler, or Tee-tee as Max would call her.
Max took his grandparents to see Spiderman at the movie theater while Andy and I spent some time playing pull-tabs at the local bar. This is another annual tradition for us to do while we are in town. Another tradition brought us to the local bowling alley for some fun and cheese curds. I will have to say that I did bowl a turkey and that was pretty exciting and allowed me to beat Andy in the first game.
It started snowing pretty hard while we were bowling so once we got home Max was pretty excited to get outside and play in it. As many know, I am not a fan of the snow or cold but I got outside and had a snowball fight all for Max.
We played a hand of Uno because this is what we normally do when we get together. Grandpa J won Uno for the night, which never happens.
We took our family photos in front of the fireplace before we packed up and headed to the westside of Madison for more family fun time.
