Ahhhh, Fall.

Pics from this Fall...

Our Hershey's, basketball player, cookie monster & kitty

candy gathering crew.
Lyric with her Cross Country coaches
who she would like to take with her to highschool next year.
She has officially hung up her running shoes
for a bit and is spending some time with her goggles and swim cap.


My sticky project...

The day Anna mastered rollerblades

and Lyric mastered the pogo stick!

Cuddly Fradies and cuddly Moses.

I remember when Gavin was "cuddly." =)

Not so much anymore!

Lyric's baptism

On Nov. 7, Lyric took the next step in her journey

of following Jesus.

It was a great day...one of my favorites yet.

(This is a short video clip taken from my shaking hands)

October, where did you go?

I do believe, I entirely missed the month of October on here!

So, going back to October 1, for a second...

Dan's birthday!

We were able to spend the day at Art Prize in Grand Rapids for a

"daytime" date.

A real date.

This was outside on the deck of the B.O.B. for lunch....got hot in the sun...that is really saying something for Michigan in October!

Drum Roll Please...

They're Back!!!

On Oct. 5, Cory, Kris, Eli & Anna got to Michigan from being in Haiti for the past 16 months!

We get to keep them for Christmas, and everything!

We celebrated Eli's 13th birthday the first weekend they were back.

Gavin was pulling Moses behind the tractor.
Not an easy job...nice brother.



Happy Birthday to our (tall) nephew!!!
Two teens in the family now!
