Korbin loves scouts...tonight he led the flag ceremony and was the star in a little skit

Can you ever have enough of Michigan?

One of our favorite winter activities is watching the UM wrestling team, currently ranked #4 in the nation. Little Koral, our future cheerleader!

I had to join the Polar Bear Club here in Michigan...this is the thrill before the chill

Korbin got an Erector set for Christmas and has spent many hours building wonderful useless gadgets

This one is a pure princess!

Korbin made little snow people on our front porch...our visitors loved it

We have a great little hill in our backyard and the kids spend hours some days sledding

Ethan had never been as excited as when he opened up his Legos Christmas morning!

Legos and sea creatures...he's in looooove!

Santa! This is exactly what I wanted! How did you know?

Koral now has three little girler children to take care of...this one is Emma

We had our good friends the Tolberts over on Christmas eve and dressed the kids up for our Luke 2 skit.

Making Christmas candy this year, from chocolate cinammon pretzels to sugar cookies

We didn't get to a Mall this year to see Santa, but he came to the Great Wolf Lodge!

Four days before Christmas, our family spent the night at a beautiful lodge with an indoor water park in Sandusky, Ohio.

This was a magical place for the whole family

There was something for everyone to do, old (Kirk) and Young(the rest)

The kids love mom dressing them up for pictures!
