VA Year in Pictures 2010 - 2

Baseball games are a highlight for our family, and this year we took in a few Tigers' games as well as this game in Seattle. Next summer we are looking forward to seeing a game in Los Angeles.

Here are the boys in front of Mt. Ranier in northwest Washington state. We took a day trip to "Paradise" - the closest lookout to the mountain and had a blast hiking the trails and having a snowball fight. God's grandeur was impossible to miss.

Here are the boys on Birch Bay, Jamison is now 9 years old and is growing up quickly. He loves sports and statistics, which means that we often have family tournament brackets and we regularly are updated on the scores, averages, and projections of all Detroit sports teams. He is getting more homework in school, but is excelling in his studies. He is also very compassionate and kind.

Here is my family on Orcas Island during our VanAndel trip to Washington state to visit with extended family, especially my 92 year old grandmother. What a great trip for our kids to see where grandpa grew up and to share it with their cousins. This trip will be forever remembered.
