We went to Michigan to visit my Dad's family for Christmas. I actually didn't think we were going to be able to go, we had just gotten an ice storm a couple days before we were scheduled to leave and there was also a huge snow storm in Michigan that had left about 10 inches of snow! Wow! We hadn't seen that much snow in a long time! But we decided to brave the ice and snow and head up for a great time with the family. It had actually been a year since we had been up to see them, so we were very excited to go. Also, it was all that Bekah had been talking about for a few weeks... how could we disappoint her (and everyone else for that matter).
It was so wonderful to see everyone and get to celebrate the Christmas holiday with family. Bekah had a great time, well of course she did... she was the center of attention and presents! I think the biggest hit for her was the doll stroller and board games she got that night. She also had a great time visiting, and wants to go back as soon as we can!

We only stayed the night, but that was a good thing because there was yet another horrible ice storm that followed us down the highway back home, in addition to the ice that was already on the highway. We stopped in Ft. Wayne on the way back, and there was a woman we had talked to who said she had been out of power for 5 days due to the ice, and with the next storm coming through was not anticipating having power for at least another few days! I am so glad we didn't get hit that bad by the storm! Here are a couple pics of the ice coating the trees that I took from the truck on the way back home.
