Happy Birthday Sophia!

A couple weeks we celebrated Sohpia's 5th birthday! Still can't believe she's already 5. Just a few pictures from the party at the farm . . .

Happy Anniversary!!

Three years ago I got married to the love of my life! We've been so blessed to have each other and God has put many incredible people in our lives. We have so much to be thankful for and can't wait for another 60 years together!

Enjoying Winter

Although we are VERY ready for spring, Larry and I took Timber for a walk this past weekend and it was just beautiful out!

Fall 2008

Well since i've been a horrible blogger, I'm catching up in one big slide show. The fall went way too fast, but we had a lot of fun! So attached are a few pictures of just some of the fun we had. I have to say, I love Michigan in the fall!

Apples, apples!

When we moved into our house, we knew there was apple trees, but didn't really think about it much until this fall. We have enough apples to share with everyone! My grandma, mom, sister and niece came over to help make applesauce. So much fun! Then Scott, Janice and the boys came over to help pick apples too.

Charlie definitely enjoyed eating them too!

Jake being his silly self!

Timber even loves apples-he picks them off the tree himself!

Ross's came to visit

Daryl and Alicia, along with Rayne and Emmry came to visit for the weekend back in September. We had an awesome time and perfect weather. We headed out to Holland to take some family pictures for them. They turned out really well, here's a couple to enjoy.

Sisterly love - dropping sand on each other

Daryl and Larry - talking constantly like little girls

UP with the Bosscher Family

As part of a family Christmas gifts to each other, we did a family getaway to the Upper Pennisula back in September. (I know, i've horrible. Soon you'll see some of the pictures of what kept us so busy) It was fun by all, staying at Janice's parent's cabin and going to see the falls.

Happy Parents who started it all . . .

Mackinac Island

We've been quite the travelers lately, since last weekend we went up to Mackinac Island for a night. (Met up with my (Stacy's) family after for the rest of the weekend- that will be another post) Weather wasn't the nicest, but we didn't let it slow us down. Head dinner at an amazing restaurant The Woods. Highly recommend it! It was nice to slow down and spend some quality time just the two of us;-)

Camping in Ludington

Labor Day weekend we headed up to Buttersville campground to spend some time with Larry's family. The weather was absolutely perfect! Although the boys didn't catch any fish, we still had an awesome weekend.

Stuck Cottage Weekend 2008

The annual Stuck Cottage weekend was awesome at usual! Taetsch's and Mathew's were extremely missed. Thanks again to the Stucks for letting us take over the cottage for a fun filled weekend!
