6/14 Vacation recap






So we are back from vacation....

We left last Sunday, pretty good drive up. A big storm rolled thru that night which was really cool to see off the lake. We went to the beach every day as it was just right by our house....very nice beach, full of rocks though so you couldn't just run around without watching your toes. Boys had a blast throwing and skipping rocks. We found some really interesting fossil rocks and just plain cool looking. We have a bag of them now.

We rented a house, which was okay. Could have been nicer but it was good enough for us. It had its own heated pool which was the bonus. It was a huge house, full basement and 3 bedrooms. The boys adjusted well to sleeping in the same room. First time Grant slept in a single bed, not his toddler bed.

We stayed in Michiana shores which is just south of New Buffalo, MI. New Buffalo wasn't a very big town so not much to do but eat ice cream. We went to Michigan City to the outlet mall and to the movies to see Kung Fo Panda. Very cute movie! Madacascar II will be out this fall and the preview looks good, I can't tell you how many times I've seen Madacasgar so I'm sure it will be out just in time for christmas.
Overall it was very relaxing but we came home as 5 days was enough for us. Enjoy the pictures.

6/3




Well its been a while since I have blogged again....life is sooo busy

Well Memorial Day weekend was great. We went to the pool most of the weekend....I got a little too much sun but now its a tan. We went to Michael and Scotts for a party, met new people and Dana, Lindsey and Mel were there as well. We then had a cookout at Matt's parents on Sunday. Dana and Kim and their families were there. Boys all had a blast. Monday was nice and relaxing, spent the day just hanging at the house.

This past weekend was crazy. I had 3 of my 5 GS's graduation parties, just crazy they are graduating!!!! I am started packing for our vacation next week. Super psyched about going. We have to bring an ungodly amount of stuff with us. We rented a house that has its own heated pool and by the beach. FUN FUN FUN!!!!!!

On a sad note, Brenda Forbes daughter Kristen passed away on Sunday due to a battle with uterian cancer. Brenda is the head of GS for Noblesville/Heights schools. Kristen was 23!!! TWENTY-THREE!!!!!!! I just can't imagine loosing your child so early to something you can't control. I have to go the viewing tomorrow night. Will be very sad and hard.

Enjoy the pics
