Highlights of 2014

This has been a pretty good year for us. A lot of adventures and a lot of memories made. I will try to only touch on the highlights, otherwise this could become a short novel.

One of my goals for this year was to do one fun, memorable thing a month as a family. Something out of our normal routine. I did really well with sticking to this goal...except for February. I don't know what happened there!

January

  • It was a snowy month in Michigan. We broke our snowfall record with over 94 inches of snow. The boys enjoyed this particular day playing in the snow!




  • We attended the Shrine Circus as we usually do in January. Evan finally got to ride a pony! He was pretty nervous. Alex of course enjoyed the lights and sounds. We had a really nice time.

February

  • This picture on Valentine's Day of Alex and Evan is one of my favorites. It shows how much they love and adore each other.


March
  •  Since we couldn't get away anywhere warm over the winter, we decided to treat the boys to a couple nights at The Bavarian Inn Hotel in Frankenmuth. They had a blast at the pools and arcade. Evan has been asking when we are going back. Definitely a hit!























April

  • Easter brought multiple Easter Egg Hunts and time with cousins!
