A few pictures from our time in Michigan

Just stopping by to share some shots of our time on the beach here in Michigan.  The weather has been beautiful and the kids have been cute.  Enjoy.

Bill and Baby enjoying a walk to the beach soon after we arrived

Gus playing with a big beach ball we bought. 

Gus loves to wade in the water and play on the rocks. 

Gus making his debut with his new hit song, "Cheese and Rocks!"

 

We've had tons of ice cream

And we even got a tiny pony-tail in Baby's tail, can you see it?  She is also wearing her new tie-dye shirt!

Best picture ever?  Gus and Daddy snuggling after a swim.

Baby girl loves the sand!  And, she isn't even eating it!

Today we went up to Superior and sat on a beautiful beach.  Can you see the cliffs in the distance (reflected in Billy's sun glasses)?

Bother and sister hanging out on the beach!

Rose

All the cousins--minus the Librande's (WE MISS YOU THERESE, DAVID, and PATRICK!)

This even we once again headed to the beach, to enjoy sunset.

Here we are..walking into the sunset.

 

Hope this gave you a fun glimpse into our wonderful vacation!

A Major Picture Dump!

I am so sorry I have been so slacky on this blog.  Prepare yourself!  Here come the massive picture dump.  I will try to add some narration so that this makes a little more sense.

Baby girl and some lilacs

Shopping trip to Sam's Club!

Baby gets a wild ride in the swing

Gus helps daddy grill up some wings in his new apron

And, we have really, really been enjoying watermelon this summer!

 

And then, while Bill was traveling for work, we headed to Marshall and has some fun with Ruth, her kids and my parents.

Baby girl loves to swing!

Hanging out at Ruth's

 

We also went for a dip at a State Park.  Since Gus is such a wild man around water I didn't get very many pictures...

 

And, at Ruth's house there are baby kitties!  We got some good shots with the baby girl!

Then we went for a walk in the pasture.  Gus loves his Grandma!

 

Then, whether he wanted to or not, David was determined that Gus learn to ride a bike.

 And here are some pictures of the little stinker himself--shorting his long hair. 

 I took some more cute ones today, and I will try to get them up here soon!

Pool Playdate

Here are some pictures from this morning!  We had some fabulous friends over for a playdate, and even though it wasn't very sunny, the kids took advantage of the pool.  We are so happy that JoAnn and Mathias were able to join us!  Welcome home!
