Weekend in Cadillac

The last few days have been really busy for our family. We found out on Tuesday that Curt's Grandma Walker passed away. We arrived in Cadillac, MI on Thursday evening and were able to spend some time with Curt's extended family at a private visitation. The funeral took place on Friday morning and it was a beautiful service. It was nice to be able to hear testimonies from people of the legacy that she left behind. She loved the Lord and she is in heaven rejoicing with her Saviour right now!

On Saturday, we were able to celebrate three birthdays that took place in April. We had fun going to the YMCA pool, having cake, and then the adults all got to go out to dinner. It was a busy day, but we enjoyed every part of it! Now we are home relaxing...sort of. :) I am trying to get caught up on laundry and have already unpacked everything. After the laundry is done, I'll really be able to relax!

Ben got out of his float for a little bit. He even jumped into Curt's arms from the side of the pool. I was surprised that he wasn't more afraid. I think it helps when he sees his cousins swimming and having fun. He wants to do what the big kids can do! :)

Enjoying December

I'm glad we had time to make sugar cookies together. Christmastime does not seem complete without them. I frosted the cookies while Ben and Curt decorated.  Lots of sprinkles and chocolate chips!  Ben loved getting slippers and a robe with his "Christmas Eve" jammies. He does love to be cozy. We decided to move up our present opening a day early because we thought I might end up in the hospital on Christmas. But, today is the 27th and still no baby. So we were a bit off on that one.  Santa brought the Lewis Hamilton car that Ben had asked him for. He was very excited!  The new pirate ship has been a favorite. He has played with it a TON a last few days.  Ben also got a few more pirate dress-up things. I've heard "Aarg!" a lot lately. :)  My parents came yesterday for a visit since my dad has this week off of work. We're hoping that I'll have the baby while they are here, but I'm not sure that is going to happen since they head home tomorrow. Ben ...

The Big 3-0!

Today I turned 30 years old. I didn't think that it would make me feel old, but it kinda does. :) I had a wonderful birthday. Curt went out and got us donuts for breakfast. Then, I got to open my presents. He did a great job shopping and I love everything he picked out! For lunch we went out to Olive Garden and then stopped by the mall for a little while. We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing at home. I hope this getting older doesn't mean that gray hairs are going to start showing up! While I got ready this morning, Curt got out his old car track. He hasn't used it in many years, so he wasn't sure if it would work. Ben loved watching the cars race around the track. We enjoyed eating lunch at Olive Garden. Ben was too interested in coloring to look up at the camera. I love cheesecake for my birthday and Curt made this one for me all by himself. It is a chocolate chip recipe that is one of my favorites. He only added one candle per decade...we didn't ...
