Wizard of Oz

We enjoyed time at the Henry Ford Museum today.  It was a nice day as a family.  Brooke was "Dorothy" all day, we were not allowed to call her anything else!

There's no place like home!

Another beautiful WINTER day!

We had a lot of fun today.  Spent time at a few parks and even had some ice cream at Dairy Queen!

Go LIONS!!!

    Lions haven't been in the playoffs since 1999...so exciting to see them back in!

Always cheering for Daddy's favorite teams!!!! 

Bead Necklaces for everyone!!!!

We found a bead kit from last year and she loved it!!!

She sat for at least 45 minutes and made us all necklaces!!!

Eye-hand coordination...she did such a good job!

Full concentration... surprised her tongue wasn't out!!!!

It is snowing!!!!

The snow is coming down fast!

It's cold out here!

Thank you Grandma C. for the Hot Cocoa pack from Christmas.  We are enjoying it!

Warming up with some Hot Cocoa!

Delicious, especially with marshmallows!!!

Snow Angel time!!!!

Our first snow of 2012...she got out there quick and made snow angels.  She was so excited, the snow didn't stay very long but long enough to play. 

                                    All bundled up and ready to play!!!!    SNOW  much fun!!!!

She loves writing her name, so she found a stick in the snow and started writing the letters.  B-R-O-O-K-E! 

We are so proud of you Brooke, you are growing and learning so much every day! 

Baby Jesus

Every year when I go to my haircut appointment at Christy's house,on our way in she stops over by the nativity in their front yard and finds baby Jesus! 

Play Date with Elise

The girls were hungry the entire time, so Ursula decided to use the juicer and the girls put all kinds of fruit in it.  It tasted yummy when they were done! 

Trying it out, delicious!!!! 

Ray Twp. Library

During the holiday season we get together with Lori, she comes "home" from Grand Rapids to her parent's house in Ray Twp.  We decided to go to the library where Lori's mom works.  Brooke had a good time playing instruments, reading books, playing on the computer and she also made an ornament to hang on the tree. 

Lori is working hard at finding Waldo in the Where's Waldo? book!

Coloring her ornament.
