SNOW, SNOW, SNOW

One of my favorite songs from the movie White Christmas is "Snow". Well, don't get me wrong I love having a white Christmas. My kids love to play in the snow but I think we have enough snow right now for the rest of winter! On Tuesday night this week we got about 6 inches. On Friday we got another 8 inches. School was canceled and the kids played outside for quite a while. Mitch didn't even make it into work because the roads were so bad. We all enjoyed hanging out together. It was a great way to start Christmas break.

Even Mitchell loves to play!

The kids all made a hill to sled down!

Hope had to dig out the deer and the presents. They were buried under the snow.

Merry Christmas!

Pumpkin Carving & Trick or Treating

We had a great time this year trick or treating with the kids. The weather was absolutely beautiful especially for Michigan. When you live in Michigan you never know what kind of weather you are going to get especially at the end of October. This year it was 67 and gorgeous. The kids didn't even need to wear a coat over their costumes.

Austin's 1st 5K

For the last 7 to 8 weeks Austin has been running/training to get ready for soccer this fall. Last week he decided to run in his first competitive run. He ran the Wood Duck Dash this morning. This was a 5K at Lake Erie Metro Park. The only bummer was the AVID runner in our family "Dad/Mitchell" had to work so Austin was on his own. He did a GREAT job considering this was his first time and he really did not know what to expect. We are so proud of him. Check out some pics from the race.
