Thanksgiving early....Happy birthday, Chris

Happy Monday! This past weekend it was 70 degrees here in West Michigan! Ahhh, sun. I got a nice dose of vitamin D. It was beautiful. We also celebrated Thanksgiving early with Craig's family, minus his Mom (we're praying for you Sue...we love you and miss you) and brother Jimmy and his family (see you guys at Christmas!)

It was also Chris' 32nd birthday. We celebrated with cake, a play written by Jack...Renee was so moved by the production, she cried.....and then off to Craig's Cruisers for some go-karting! Here are some pictures. Enjoy!

Happy Halloween

Happy, November! To celebrate the new month, we like to dress up in costumes and go door-to-door begging for candy. It's an old tradition, some of you may do it as well. This year my children, I had hoped, were going to be Mario and Luigi, thanks to Erika...but because Jack had it in his mind (quite firmly) that he was going to be a ghost this year, my plan did not fully come to fruition. Thank you again, Erika, for the costumes....Heath thoroughly enjoyed his.
Not much is new here. The weather is starting to get cool and the leaves have mostly fallen from the trees. We are looking forward to seeing family this month on a couple different occasions. That's always fun! Stay warm. Keep in touch. Love you!
