It has been a fun Winter so far and we have been on the road quite a bit.  We visited friends and families over the holidays so the kids got to see a lot of different places.  We were able to head down to my parents after the holidays and we went down to Indianapolis to visit The Holcombs.  We had a blast at the Children’s Musuem there and the kids told us they wanted to move in with Marc, Kathy and Ella.  We were there for 3 days and then headed back after the New Year.

The kids have been taking more ski lessons this year and really getting into it.  Jack has really taken to it and has no fear.  Maggi is more reserved but is doing very well.  Krissy and I have visions of some ski vacations in our future.  I have been able to spend a little time on the snowboard and this snow we have been having has helped.  I may start Jack on it as well next year after he gets completely comfortable on skis.  We are splitting time between the mountains and at the Grand Traverse Resort for tennis so we are trying to be very active this winter.  It gets us out of the house and exploring a lot more of Northern Michigan.

I have been busy at work back and forth to St Louis.  That will continue for a little while longer and we are making the best of when I am in town.  The project I am on is going well and just trying to keep all my guys busy on different things.

Krissy and I are headed out to DC next week for the Inauguration and going to stay with the Frillicis.  We are really looking forward to it and I think it is going to be a lot of fun.  We got our tickets before the election so we were committed now matter who one.  Vince has been trying to get us out there for the last 12 years and we finally were able to pull it off.  The kids are going to be staying with a bunch of folks up here so they can stay in School.  From there we will be counting down to Spring Break in Key West.  It will be time for some sun by then.  I will try and post some updates after the inauguration and updates the photos pages when I can.  You can also hit Krissy and I up on Facebook when you have time.  Take care and Happy New Year.
