Since I haven't been good at keeping this blog updated,
Thought I'd better get a Holiday Shout out posted.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Love Tony & Nicole

And she's up!
I haven't been good at posting lately, but as Per Eleni's Request.
"Dad can you put this on the Schmitz Blog?"
Eleni got up on Skis behind the boat last night.
She was very excited as was I.
Guess we will be burning lots of gas the rest of the summer!
I'm sure my Dad and Mom remember it well when I used to say,
"One more time!" as she didn't want to quit and skied until dark.
I forgot to bring the good camera, so just had my phone, but we
got it all captured!
WAY TO GO ELENI!!!

Easter & Mom's Day
It's been a slow to get going Spring but we're trying to make the most of it.
We had a nice Easter at my parents with my Brother's Family.
Kids dressing up, Papa enjoying hiding eggs all over the yard it was a fun day.

Then it was over to Grandma Trish's and with the lake starting to break away from Shore, the yearly goal for the kids is to see who can be the first in the lake. Just like Mom and her sisters when they were growing up. The older kids made it happen!

Ryder's filling out getting big and already teething! At 3 Months tomorrow...hard to believe.
He's been a very happy boy and has been sleeping through the night.
Ryder (3 Months)
Mother's Day we headed over to Park Rapids to visit my Grandparents along with My Mom & Dad who were there. 1st plan was to hit a lunch stop with Nicole, but the cool little eateries we were hoping to hit must have took the day off for Mom's day, but we were able to rock the German Smorgasbord at the Schwarzwald German Restaurant which was dynamite!

Due Date Today.....No Baby Yet!
Today is Nicole's Due Date and also a Happy 40th Anniversary to my parents today!
No baby yet. Would have been fun to have the baby on my parents 40th, but it wasn't ment to be I guess?
Yesterday Eleni and I cruised up to Maplelag for a morning ski with Nicole's Sister Kari's Family who were staying there for the weekend.
A slight panic attack and blood pressure flair up is all that has happened on the baby front this weekend. Nicole has a Doctors Appointment tomorrow AM so we'll see what happens after that.
Stay tuned for updates.... Follow Via Twitter (over on the right side column) for frequent updates when things start to happen....Baby will soon be coming.
Eleni stridin' up hill....She was wore out!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! 1/1/11
Kicking off the 2011 with a Nice Winter Storm! Changing up the plans staying around the home front cranking out loaves of fresh bread and taking down the Christmas Tree and packing up the Christmas Decor for the season.
Christmas was a riot with the Girls really getting into the season this year with Marlo understanding it a little more and the two of them playing together nicely keeps it entertaining.

Didn't get enough skiing in over the Holidays, but Eleni and I did get out a for a couple of short pokes, enough to keep her begging for more which is good. We have MN Youth Ski League starting next Sunday so will be fun getting her out with some other kids as I'll be helping coach this year too so looking forward to that. One more day left on the weekend to finish shoveling out the driveway and hopefully sneaking in a ski......HAPPY NEW YEAR!
