You guys helped Mom make and decorate Christmas Cookies.

We gave up. She can sit on this couch. Until we get rid of that couch.  

Oh the places you sleep Kevin! Yes you slept there all night.

 Goofball. You bumped your head and wanted an icepack. 

Oh the places you sleep, part 2.  

 But seriously, the places you sleep!!!

Kevin's custom rocket ship. Not to scale.  

Christmas "eve" with the Bowmans. 

Our Annual Christmas Dinner at Hugo Frogs. You guys tried and enjoyed the frog legs. We ordered what seemed like almost everything on the menu. Nick, when your filet arrived, you were not very hungry.  

Tadaaaa! 

 Official Christmas Eve at Grandma and Grandpa Bowmans.

Nick, you were off to the side with something that made you puke. You were fine the next morning for Christmas.  

Twas the night before Christmas and the first year for the fireplace.  

 Don't go downstairs. Kevin, you reminded me to grab it. 

Patience, patience. (See Nick, all better)

CHRISTMAS MORNING!!!!!!

Kevin joined a baseball team. Here you are shooting the ball. You didn't make this shot but 6 games in you made two baskets! You walked away with you arms wide open and you mouth is shock. It as if  you just won the Championship. Mom, Dad, Nick, Grandma and Grandpa Bowman were so happy for you. 

You both earned the Principals award. Pictured here is Kevins. Nick, you got it the next week.  

Where's Nick? 

Kevin the Robot 

We built you a desk for your room. Here is you painting it.

Troop 597 invited you guys out for a Pre Thanksgiving feast campout. Trying to entice Nick to join their troop after Cub Scouts

Here you guys are playing 9 Square

You and me eating! 

 It was very cold that night. I never saw you until the next morning after this photo. 

You guys were very warm. 

Hey the future. This is the day we setup a DAKboard.  

I was in the basement working when I received this text from Mom. 

Nick, I am just noting this for future reference.  

One day, a few days before Thanksgiving, Mom asks; want to put the tree up?

With that we set everything up.  

Thus marking, the beginning of Christmas.  

Right before your surgery to reduce your scar size.   

Your new DESK! 

 Bearded Brothers for No Shave November

 For the first time in nearly 20 years the Bowman and the Polzin family came together for Thanksgiving, at the Bowmans. 

 Cousins!

This speaks for itself.  

Christmas Cookies! You guys decorated them.

The Basement. 

I have framed out and ran electric to the new bathroom, bar and furnace room.

Your 2nd place Mariners. The coach came up to me after the season and asked to have Nick back on the team in the spring. You were one of the top hitters. 

At a haunted trial hike, you guys got to shoot real BB guns. Kevin is in orange and Nick you are to the right of him. Kevin you though you were so excited when you got bulls eye, except it was on Nicks target.

 Mom and Dad crashed a wedding!!! 

Only to say hi to a coworker that was getting married. 

The carvings of the season. Your ideas, my cutting.  

 Oh, did I mention that we allowed Sunny to go upstairs. She loves sleeping with the boys in their beds and in her own bed in our room.
