Frankenmuth


Every year our friends at the Bavarian Inn in Frankenmuth send Gary and I coupons for free meals for our birthdays. So, each year we make a trip for a yummy family style, all you can eat, chicken feast some time during the month of October. Before we come home we stop at Bronners to pick out our new Christmas ornaments. Each year the kids pick out an ornament that is special to them. I love this tradition. It makes decorating the Christmas tree a memory filled time, as we let each child put on their own ornaments and we always talk about who got it for them and when. Crazy as it sounds I like putting the ornaments away for the same reason, I get to look at each one and just remember. This picture was taken of the kids during a break from walking around the various shops in town. When Kyle sees this picture, he always says, "Look Mommy, Justin is saving me"...in reality Justin was trying to help keep Kyle in his seat so I could try to take the photo! :) But I love Kyle's take on the situation.
