New Years Eve festivities

Tonight we did our normal New Years Eve activity of bowling at City Limits.  Always a good time.  Afterwards we went to the Houser's and hung out and played games.  Bring on 2018!!

Would make my grandpa proud!

Got a new car today, needed something more reliable and better on gas that what I had.  My grandpa loved his Buicks, and this is a 2011 Regal.  Hopefully it holds up well!

The boys take 1st place!

The boys took first place today in the Holiday Hoops Tournament in Battle Creek!  They played very well and it was a fun morning.  They are fun to watch and are really coming together as a team.

Abby shredding it

Abby is loving the snowboard, and luckily our backyard has a big enough hill for her to get a little run going!

Palmer family Christmas

Merry Christmas!  My family came over and we had a great Christmas.  The weather was awesome and we had a great time.  A fun first Christmas in our house.

Hoffman Family Christmas

Last night we celebrated the Hoffman family Christmas in Jackson.  Everyone was there, 24 people in all!  It was a bit crazy, but we all had fun and were together.  Now for the Palmer side later today!

Cookie Decorating

The other night we decorated cookies, kids still love doing it.  And lets face it, the Holidays are not the same without cookies!

Annual trip to Crossroads Village

Tonight we went to Crossroads Village and had a fun time with the Christmas train ride and festivities.  The weather was one of the better for the times we have gone.  As usual, a good time.

Snow Day fun

The kids had a snow day today so of course that means go out and play in the snow!  Alex helped plow the drive, they made a fort, tried sledding in the back yard, and then we went to a fun hill nearby and really did some sledding.

Olivia and the Broadmoor get in on the fun

Well, we got around 5 inches of snow today, so I had Olivia try snow blowing since it is hooked up to her tractor, and then tonight I used the Abby's with the plow and it did great.  I'm sure the novelty will wear off but right now it's fun moving snow!
