Thanksgiving in Portage

We enjoyed a beautiful thanksgiving day in Portage. Had a delicious meal and spent time with family. It was so nice to get outside.

Happy Thanksgiving

Kyle found his FEET

Kyle is now fascinated with his feet!  So cute.

And here is just a random cute picture.  Kyle's neck is getting much stronger.

Anthony at the CMU game

Tony and Anthony went to a CMU game on 11/3.  They tailgated and stayed for the first half of the game.  It was chilly, but they had a great time.

 Playing at the tailgate!

 Obstacle course.

 New friend!

 They had tickets to the hospitality room inside.  Was nice to warm up!

Kyle's Baptism

Kyle was baptized in Evart, MI last weekend (11/4/12).  We survived our first stay in a hotel as a family of 4.  It helped having the Mayers there too.  We enjoyed seeing family and friends for this special occasion.  Thank you to my brother in law, Dan, who took all the pictures!  After church we all went out for breakfast.  Since Evart is so small, there wasn't a restaurant to accommodate all of us.  Thankfully my dad was listening to the church announcements. We all went to the VFW for a delicious pancake breakfast.

 Resting before the action.

 Fr. Joe talking to parents and God parents.

 Surprisingly Drew and Anthony behaved well sitting next to each other!

 This is it....time for the holy water...

 Just a little unhappy for a moment.

 Welcome to the church Kyle....

 Sure wish these guys got to see each other more often!

 Bringing up the gifts.

 The kids got to go up around the alter with Fr. Joe.  Anthony's first time doing this.  He did great!

 So glad Jeff and Penny McDonald could make it to the baptism.  It meant so much to have them there!
