River House Fun!

We spent a weekend up at the two TJ's river house. It was fun and relaxing. The three little ones love to be together and play! We enjoyed the snow, shopping, cooking, eating, playing, and just being together!

Relaxing on the couch.

Wild ones in the morning. They like to look out the windows for ducks on the river.
Eating some bacon with papa!
Hiking with uncle Theron.
Annette getting kisses from her mom and dad!
We all enjoyed a walk down to Burt Lake. The kids wanted to play in the snow and have a snowball fight when we were done with the hike.

Up North Fun!

We went up north to Avalanche Bay & Boyne with our friends so the kids could enjoy the water park and attempt some skiing! We had lots of fun and the kids got along and played really well!

We are looking forward to a wonderful 2012. We wish you and your loved ones health and happiness for the upcoming year. We will be busy at our house getting ready for our baby to arrive the beginning of May, getting the boys into the same bedroom, and a trip to Disney World! Lots of posts and pictures to come.

Nolan and dad coming down the hill! 

The hula hoop is a great way for Nolan to feel in control skiing and to save dads back!

Christmas!!!

What a Christmas is was... We had such a fun time this whole holiday season with our boys, our families, and friends. Here are some pictures from Christmas day at our house. We are so thankful for our two boys. We love and adore them so much! They are at a fun, entertaining, and exciting stage of life. We love watching them grow, explore, and learn new things every day. We can't wait to see what 2012 has in store.

All ready for yard work. The boys got a lot of matching gifts! (It makes play time much more enjoyable!)

Davis loving on his new baby elephant.  

Christmas morning. All ready for the boys to come down.

Tool belts, glasses, chain saws, weed whips, and leaf blowers! All ready to help dad outside! 

 Christmas Dinner!

Christmas Eve...

Oh the fun continues...Christmas Eve at Mamae and Papa D's. We had a brunch in the morning and the whole family came over for a party at night.

This picture captures only a small percent of the mass chaos it was opening presents with the boys and Annette. The boys love the pirate ship from Aunt Im and More TJ. Davis also got a cabbage patch baby boy from Annette. He loves his baby, he sleeps with him every night!

Christmas was lots of fun! Here are some pictures from our Christmas with the Firek's. It was a fun evening with great food, laughs, and presents! (The boys couldn't wait to open up presents.)

Nolan was so excited to get a toy gun, cowboy hat, and spurs from uncle John.
