Family Winter Weekend 2017

The whole fam, minus Carly Shaye, plus a few extras. Carly was about forty minutes away at a church retreat over the weekend. They were also tubing, along with some good God power time. She joined the family on Sunday, after I took the beautiful 40 minute drive to get her. Upper Michigan is breathtaking in winter.

Daughters 1 + 3 (Kirstyn & McKenna)

Captured moment, full of expression. These are the pictures that I love.

All my girls, minus Carly . . . which makes me sad. With this size family, it’s near impossible to get us all in one photo.

Tim – this is such a great shot!!!

A lot of laughter and many memories (mostly comical). It was a GREAT weekend!!!

MY OUTFIT DETAILS

Ski Jacket: Karbon | Snow Pants: Arctic | Hat: Sunnytree |  Ski Gloves: Ao Magic | Boots: Sorel (also at Amazon) | Pink Boot Laces: Amazon

SOREL Boots are the best! We are a big fan of this line. It is probably the number one boot on the market for woman. They keep your feet warm and dry in the coldest conditions. Almost all my girls have Sorel. We all have different pairs, but love them. They are an investment piece and you will have them forever.

SOREL Boots that I recommend…of course mine: Joan of Arctic (also at Amazon) are my first pick. But here are some other great ones:

Caribou (also at Amazon) – these are the pair my oldest daughter, Kirstyn has | Winter Carnival |  Tofino |  Tofino || | Joan of Arctic (Shearling) | Sorel Kids

Bobby’s Overhead Columbia Camo Jacket: ASOS

      You’re welcome Rebecca! Very happy with all this winter gear. And not to bad on the price, either. I just want some sunshine. The gray skies are what kills me during the winter months.

    Love all that snow. I live at the beach; and we did get a little bit of snow…..very little this year. I am from the mountains of NC and I do miss the snow. Thanks for sharing. Be safe going home.
