Other Christmas Break Happenings 2013

We tried to do a couple of fun things over Christmas break. One night we took a ride in out pajamas and went to see Christmas lights around this side of town. We went to the Meijer Gardens with Grandma Roedema to see the Christmas trees and train. Ryan also took Levi on a special date to go ice skating. He was so proud that he improved since the last time he tried. I also took Maci on a special outing to get her hair cut and out for lunch. The Roedema girl cousins, Grandma Roedema and aunts also had a special Nutcraker fairy party at Aunt Allison's house too.

Koopmans Christmas 2013

We had a fun Christmas party at Half Moon Lake. The weather was perfect to be outside and the sun was shinning. The kids made a snowman and Ryan pulled the cousins on a sled train behind big Red. Of course, the kids also rode the 4 wheelers and the dune buggy too. We had supper and opened presents and everyone was tired after a fun day.







More Christmas 2013

We had a fun morning celebrating Christmas with our family. The kids ripped opened the gifts so fast it was a pretty quick deal. We tried to slow them down but they were so excited. They did not get too many gifts as far as toys and seemed to do ok with that except when asked what Levi's favorite gift was he said..none..I did not like any of them. Maci got a special baby doll bed made by her Dad and blankets to match made by Grandma Koopmans. She really loved this gift. I got some handmade ornaments made by Levi which were really special too. It was hard to get them to stay still for any pictures so this is the best I could get.
Merry Christmas Luke!

So excited..Luke lost his sleeper in the action

Levi loved the anticipation of Christmas this year and counting down the days on the Advent Calendar
