Ethan warming up... or taking a break... or falling...

Jason & E out snowboarding for the day... He's the one jumping in the middle, trying to impress the girls - I imagine! (& himself!)
Jason trying to look cool... and like he's in his 20's still!

Doughnuts were his treat of choice, in typical Ethan fashion. This photo cracks me up, Olivia in the corner drinking pop she wasn't supposed to have (probably because we were distracted), Amelia trying to hide from getting in the photo and Ethan making a very disgusting, "trying to be funny" face - haha.
Happy Sweet 16 Ethan - cute stuffed animal gifts from his little brother & sister.

And several gifts of money... always nice - especially at 16!!

A fun winter day outside - Angels being created, sister - brother bonding...
Our little backyard sledding hill is the perfect size for them!

Cooper loves sweeping! Gotta love it! Grooming the modern little man!

Cooper making sure Ethan's snowboard helmet fits right - such a good little brother!

Ethan thinking the shirt Aunt Bee and Uncle Zane bought him was hilarious! And we all agreed!

Of course, Cooper and Olivia had to try on Ethan's new purple shorts (school colors).

Ethan gets back from his Dad's in D.C. and it was his turn to open presents on January 2, 2012, which Liv & Coop were very excited about (more presents to help open)!

Cooper waking up to a white Christmas - he loves the prettiness of snow, just like his mommy.

Cooper and Grandpa - wonderful to spend Christmas day and have dinner with my parents, Jason's parents, Bee, Zane and Joyce (Zane's mom). A beautiful Christmas in more ways than one!

Surprising my in-laws with a trip to Disney - a favorite present to give - and the countdown to Disney begins (33 days now - YAH - can't wait!)

Cooper taking a break from opening presents and Liv modeling her new hat - very appreciative of everything - Thanks Santa!

Oh Christmas morning - what FUN!!

Daddy and Daughter making cookies - awwwww - I love the Holidays :-)

Christmas card photo successfully achieved - thanks to the beautiful nighttime scenery at Greenfield Village.
