Silver Beach, MI

We just spent several days in St. Joseph, MI with Oma, Opa, and Blake.  We had a great house that was right next to everything.  We played on the beach and at the splash pad.  We also spent a day at the children's museum. 

 They loved playing at the playground on the beach.

 Our house was right next to the carousel!!

 The second day at the beach the kids went in the lake a little bit, it was freezing!

These "belly bumpers" were her favorite!

Outside Fun

We've been loving the warm weather!!!

Drew is obsessed with anything lawn equipment related.  He LOVES to help mow, weed eat, use the blower, etc.

But the power washer may be the all time favorite!

Swinging in our jammies!

We've already been to the zoo 4 times!!

Lots of bike rides!

We went to the circus in Manchester a couple weeks ago.

Grandma, Taylor, and Ben rode the elephant!!!

Weekend Fun!

This past weekend we finally had time with not a lot going on and no studying!!!! Saturday morning we went to Touch-a-Truck.  The kids got to see and go in all different kinds of vehicles. 

Their favorite was the ice cream truck for obvious reasons!!!

Grandpa Rick and Uncle Blake came to visit too!  We had our first fire and s'mores of the season!

The zoo opened this weekend so Sunday morning we made our first zoo trip.  It was a little chilly so not all the animals were out, but it was a good change of pace!
