good-bye 2011

A few stray pics from the holidays....

Christmas hats.

Jason and his super stacker Christmas cookie/cake.

Lucky Zsha gets a new bowl from Louis for Christmas.

In search of snow and sun in Michigan.

Found both!

Thanks to a ditch digging effort by a neighbor farmer for draining his field, we have an awesome pond.

It is huge!!

Lots-o-fun!

in search

In search of this year's Christmas tree.

Fun,

and games along the way.

Mission accomplished.

weekend, in a nutshell


Getting ready to ride on a float in the city's Christmas parade,

posing for holiday photos (some more reluctantly than others),

sledding, fast,

and documenting the newest construction.

Girls in snow,

girls with sprinkles,

girls eating sprinkles,

clean girls in towels.

Oh so funny.

from brown to white

So begins the seasonal parade of snow-clad pictures.

An early and abundant snowfall ushers us into the land of

ski bunnies

and rosy cheeks.

new wheels

We are having LOTS of fun with our latest thrift store treasure: dune buggy.

Rad racer meets the turks,

Gobble?

and the pigger-diggers.

Wheels are so much fun.

fall, in fest form

A weekend of many leaves,

and many children.

The one-year old gang: Linnea and Mateo.

Not far behind, Leo.

Story (and pick-your-nose) time with Uncle Chris.

The boy's snack bar,

and Belle's (Isabelle and Annabelle) puzzle time.

Happy Birthday to us!

Happy bowl of whipped cream!

And an even happier naked cupcake.
Good times for all.

wigs and boots

Although often a shy bunch, we do our best to Halloween-it-up.....

Fuzzy dragon and fuzzier Mama hair.

Ladybug-in-boots-&-shades.

freaks and leeks

This googly-eyed pumpkin is Annabelle's entry in the contest at the library.

Monster leeks.

Our newest family member, specifically designed to startle the bus driver and the mailman.

And unexpectedly, Linnea.
