We got him out.

Today I got a text from Amanda asking whether I could come home for lunch a little early.  Apparently Nathan had locked himself in the van.  This was no surprise to me.  Every time we walk past the van, he points and grunts.  He loves to stand in the front seat and pretend to drive.

When I got home, Amanda said that she had just convinced him to press the unlock button.  She showed me the above picture.  Obviously, he wasn't scared at all.  He was having a ball.  Another Nathan John adventure.

Merry Christmas

Mom got the boys a video camera for Christmas.  Below, you can see some of our most recent creations.

Girls Day Out

This week Amanda took the girls for a special day at the Children's Theater Company production of Cinderella.  A wonderful time was had by all and as you can see from the pictures below, everyone looked beautiful.

Happy Halloween

Things have been flying at the Minnesota Gammons house.  So much so that we decided to punt on Halloween costumes.  The kids all pulled something out of the play room the morning of.  We had a great team even still.

We took in a pretty good haul.  I said to some coworkers that Halloween is one of the only holidays where it pays to have six kids.  We'll be eating this candy until Christmas.

Fall Door County Trip

Last weekend we ventured to Door County, Wisconsin for our regular get-together with all of Amanda's family from the Chicago area.  We had another great time.  Al Johnson's restaurant, Peninsula State Park, apple orchards, the fish boil and hanging out with family.  We love this place and love returning there regularly.

Let's play hockey!

Last night we got to go to a Minnesota Wild hockey game.  It was a blast!  While I grew up in hockey country and attended many games growing up, this was the boys first hockey game.  We got there early and were able to watch the team warm up, got the compulsory picture with Noordy the mascot, and got our food.  The seats were great and best of all they were given to us.  What's better than a night of free hockey with the boys?  Not much!
