Time with Family

 We had more cousins come over, and we all went outside to play in the snow.

 Alex and Ruger played up in his tree fort.

 We played Dutch Blitz a fun and fast paced game.

 Joseph and I playing piano together.

Recording

 Our Uncle Hank came up to our house to help record our first album.

 It was a fun and new experience being in front of a recording microphone.

 Joseph came up too, and in between recording, we all had fun making meals together, playing games, and going sledding.

We got everything done, and we can't wait till the album is all ready!

Christmas Day

A picture of our lovely lit Christmas tree on Christmas Eve.

 Christmas morning we were all blessed with great gifts. Dad helps out Alex and Tony with some building sets.

 Julia and Nick enjoying some of their gifts.

 Maria and Julia both requested for some "footie" pajamas. As you can see.... they both love their snugly outfits.

Bella got a newly repainted kitchen set and some new kitchen ware, along with  food and a Rapunzel dress.

A delicious breakfast plus with homemade doughnuts are always a delightful treat for Christmas.

The Vinecki clan all together for Christmas 2013! Merry Christmas everyone, and a blessed and Happy New year from our house to yours!

Dancing Together.

We went to a polka dance and had a great time.

 We all danced a lot!!!

 Nick and Bella danced every song, waltz or polka.

We all had a great time enjoying the music and dancing.

November post.

 Throughout Nov, our parents celebrated their Anniversary of marriage. What a blessing to have such a commitment to God, and what an example it is to all of us.

There were also nature walks during the turning of the seasons. The little kids took an afternoon walk with Mom.

They were all bundled up as the weather was getting colder. But now all the leaves have fallen, and the ground turns from brown to white with a fresh blanket of snow. And it is "really" cold!!!

Happy Birthday Maria!

 We celebrated Maria's birthday with British theme.

 I made her a delicious Turtle Cheesecake.

 Some of us kids went and spent an afternoon at a bowling alley, as part of her birthday!

We had a lot of fun laser tagging, and bowling! Happy Birthday Maria!!! We love you very much, you are a special person in this family! God bless your life to the fullest!!!
