Sitting around the table at Kristen and Cory's house, writing in each other's New Year's Eve Journals.

Our New Year's Eve tablecloth holds lots of memories.

Adam, Logan, Kristen, and Ethan. We enjoyed visiting and playing games together.

We had fun with our first annual trampoline extravaganza!

We shared some good meals around the dining room table.

8bol cheeses it for the camera.

Merry Grace always has a bright smile to share.

The brothers sharing some good times together.

Our rainy day excursion to ride and play! Do we know how to have fun or what?! :)

Adam and Elise on the bike trail. Even the little ones did a great job keeping up and having fun!

It was fun to gather for a movie night and share some laughter and good times.

We made painted sugar cookies. Ian was so cute when he discovered he could eat the "paint" which was really icing!

We all love to play games when we get together. We appreciate our chief game organizer, Ethan, for all his good ideas and enthusiasm!

Who knew there were so many things you could do on a trampoline! :)

Holiday Fun

We made gingerbread houses.

We played at the park. I love Merry Grace in this little red jacket. It was a hand-me-down over 25 years ago and worn by Kristen, Ethan, Adam, and Logan, and now also by Elise, Ian, and Merry Grace...that's some good coat!

The sib's at Kristen and Cory's house.

We had fun on our trips to the greenway walking/biking trail.
