Becky takes a lot of pictures around the Green Bay area.
She takes a lot of pictures of our kids.
One day there was a storm and she caught some of it in our front yard.
The same night as that storm, she and Ben spent some time on our porch playing with lights and the camera's shutter speed.

Our neighbor, Mary Anne, has some beautiful flowers in her yard that Becky loves to photograph.
On Labor Day we went to Sheboygan to visit Jack. And his cats.
On the way home from Sheboygan we stopped at Neshota Beach in Two Rivers.
In September we spent a weekend in Cable, WI for the Chequamegon Fat Tire Festival. Bob & Mike have participated every year for some time now. This year Mike's daughter Taylor did too. The rest of us just played at the lake.

In October we hosted a Florian Mathis, a German student, as part of an exchange program through Ashwaubenon High School. Next summer, the Mathis' will host Sam in Germany.
We visited Mackinac Island while he was here. Including, of course, one of the world's longest suspension bridges.
Perfect timing!
Becky got up early, early one morning to get pictures of Lake Huron while we were there. I mean, they were actually pictures of the sunrise ... but that is on the Lake Huron side of Mackinac.
We wandered around the island while there. Visited the Fort.
Jack came to visit us on his 20th birthday.
Florian plays tennis.
Ben marched with the band in the homecoming parade.
We spent an afternoon and Cave Point county park and Whitefish Dunes.
One of the places Becky loves to photograph is Fonferrek Falls, about 10 minutes south of Green Bay.
Becky decided to try out the timer on her camera to get some pictures of us on the bay. It didn't work. However, a nice couple visiting Green Bay from Atlanta just happened to be there, the husband was a photographer too and he volunteered to help us out.
Becky had fun playing with the kids over Thanksgiving.
Pie!
Merry Christmas! Well, almost. It's a good time to take pictures for it.
