Grand Haven

Out to lunch in Grand Haven
Checking out the huge boats! Right when we go there.



This barber has been there for 40 years. We liked him!!



We checked out music in the park.



Dinner at an Italian Resturant. It was delish!



This week Ryan and I went to Grand Haven. We had such a great time. It was just the 2 of us. We shopped, ate, swam, relaxed in the sun, and just had a wonderful time together! We loved getting away from the everyday work; laundry, cleaning, playing etc... we slept in and did what we wanted to do!! It was a perfect get a way!

Subdivision Party

When we moved into our house 3 years ago, Ryan was hoping we moved into a sub that was full of fun neighbors! And it was except there wasn't many sub gatherings or parties so guess who got the job of planning one. Yes.. me! There was face painting, tattooing ,a bounce house, craft table and games all planned! The sky was cloudy and a bit rainy, but we still got started with the bike parade. We wanted to make the best of it. Until, it started to down pour and get really windy. Everyone went running into our garage and our neighbors garage across the street. Within minutes 2 tents were lifted out of the ground and a table was lifted and flipped on the glass side. Shattered glass was everywhere and the storm wasn't letting up. Thankfully, no one was hurt! And, most importantly, the kids had a ball!





See the tent down across the street. Yep, that's where the food was!







This tent is down in my driveway with a table and glass ontop of it!





Lilly in the bike parade!







More parade Pictures




It ended up being a good time and people were so great. But, my first time throwing a sub party and the weather really made things complicated! I guess I can try again next year! Oh, by the way, today's weather is beautiful! :)

Dance Dynamics












Lilly has been dancing at Dance Dynamics for most of the summer. She dances with her friends Kaelyn and Payton and her cousin Lanie! Here are a few pictures of Lilly listening to the story. And of course a few snap shots of her before we went to dance one day.

Cutting with Scissors




Lilly loves to cut, so I thought hmm.. what do they need to be able to do when they go to Kindergarten. So, we started with cutting on a straight line. She did great! Next up, a zig zag line!
