New Years in Leavenworth

We spent New Year's weekend in Leavenworth with our very good friends Kristen and Greg - the Klissers! We packed the truck up to the brim and headed out Friday. There were warnings about traveling on the passes but we had no issues or traffic either way. This was the Klisser's first trip to Leavenworth and our first trip outside of Oktoberfest. The lights were still up and there was snow on the ground, so pretty!

First stop: Gustav's for some beer & brats!
Unfortunately Avery has taken a liking to beer - well all drinks that belong to Mommy and Daddy. We couldn't keep her hands & straw out of them!
We rented a condo just on the West end of the village, it was great!
For dinner we walked to King Lidwig's - one of our favorite places to eat during Oktoberfest due to the music & dancing. A little different without the large crowds and us not in costume.

Cheers!
Avery got down to the music though. She loves to dance!
"Uncle Greg, may I have this dance?"
Walking back after dinner. So pretty out!
Ah, my KK!
And had a pajama party when we got back. Avery's pj's were in theme.
Kisses from Auntie KK.
Saturday morning the boys woke up early and headed to Steven's Pass for some snow skiing. The mountains got some fresh snow, lucky boys!
The girls lounged around the condo, and after Avery's long (and much needed) nap, we headed into town for some wine tasting.
Until Daddy picked us up.
Avery had a very intense conversation on Mommy's phone with Uncle Greg. (Who was sitting on the other side of the living room).
On Sunday we went to the Sleeping Lady for breakfast. They have a fantastic organic buffet. And, it snowed over night so we had fresh snow to play in. This year Avery thinks snow is pretty cool, especially in her new Uggs.
Bye-bye Leavenworth, thanks for a great weekend!
I hope everyone had a great New Year's Eve! Here's to a prosperous and happy 2012 for us all!
