Fun in the Sun at Lake Michigan

We went to visit friends who live in Holland and we all decided to go to the beach. Our little girl came prepared - toting her very own beach towel and sun glasses. She was so adorable... When we got there, it was time to get to work loading up the sand pail with water, then with sand. She liked carrying it back and forth from the water to our site.

Rachel had a whole lot of fun playing in the sand, letting the waves roll over her feet, snacking on treats while sitting on our blanket and finally snuggled up with Daddy when she was all tuckered out!

Bubbles!

Yay for bubbles! Rachel received this wonderful little lawn mower for her birthday. As you push it, bubbles come out! Rachel was tickled and laughed as she pushed it up and down the sidewalk. She thought that it was the most amazing thing. She liked it so much that she insisted we show her Nana and the neighbors just how neat it was. I must admit, it is a pretty cool little toy. If only it really mowed the lawn!

We're back... FINALLY!!!

I know, I have not updated my blog since winter time. And many of our "fans" have let me know that they missed our posts. So... I am FINALLY back and will certainly try to be better at updating our blog. With that said, here are some recent pictures taken at the pool with our play group friends. Rachel loves to play and splash in the water and we all had a great time!
