Happy Seven Years, Kyle!!

If it's Christmas, it must be Grand Rapids!
Finally, some SNOW!!  We arrived to about 8" on the ground and we added a few more last night.
Today's been off & on - so we'll have a white Christmas.  First one in (3) years!

Just Dad here with a drive-by post to mark SEVEN years for Kyle on his Forever Family Day.

We can't believe that another year has passed, and a busy one at that.

Kyle's now firmly established as a second grader and he's been a great big brother influence for Dylan as Dylan navigates first grade.  Kyle continues to excel in Math & Reading and he's made many friends in his new class (even though many of his first grade classmates were moved to other classes).

He continues to enjoy Lego Projects, Wii, and learning about pretty much anything.  He's a jump rope expert, loves to play basketball in the driveway (thanks to Mr. Dave for the backboard!) and he throws a tight spiral.  Just tonight, Mom helped him discover "code.org" where he's writing basic (not the language) programs to direct "angry birds" though mazes to gobble up "green pigs".

Kyle would wear shorts to school every day if we let him and he can't get enough of the snow!




The family was very active again last year and the rest of the crew's doing well.
We're hoping to have another fun trip to Mexico this spring.



Congratulations, we love you and we can't believe that we're lucky enough to be your parents. Can't wait to see what next year brings.

Love,
Dad & Mom
