We celebrated this New Year's Eve with dinner at the Rochester Chop House, followed by watching the ball drop at Saylor & Stacy's house.

Christmas

Written By: Hobee

Dan, Annie, and Kevin spent the night at the Lake House on Christmas Eve.  On Christmas morning Dan ventured out to find breakfast.  He came back with cereal bars from the gas station.  Then we headed to Lake Orion.  We had a great Christmas.  We opened presents in the morning, had eggs Benedict for brunch and then took a nap (watching Expendables 2).  Annie's parents came over for dinner.  After dinner Annie, Kevin, and John pulled out guitars to play Christmas music.  Annie is getting good!

Nuspire Holiday Party

Written By: Dan

This year's theme was "Nuspire Games."  We brought in arcade games, table games, and casino games (all free).  Winning tickets from the games were put into a drawing.  Winning tickets were allowed the owner to play "guess the box" for prizes.  Some awesome (TVs, Xbox, Go Pro Cameras, etc..), some not so much (bags of candy, fake crowns, etc..)....

Great time at White Lake Oaks.

Suite at the lions game

This was our first Suite at Ford Field.  A neat venue.  Larger suites than Comerica or the Palace.  But not the best views (upperbowl).  The Lions lost with a late drive by the Colts and a great rookie in Andrew Luck.

I yelled to Santa "I've been good Santa.".

He said "I know."
