Our Summer

I have not blogged in so long. However, it is not because of the lack of excitement in our household. From August until now I don't think we have stopped. August started with the kids and I hitting a Tigers baseball game, then my birthday and Coast Guard in Grand Haven while camping at Campers Paradise, which lead into Silver Lake, Yogi Bear and the dunes with friends for a week vacation. We then came home and went into a week of hibernation due to colds and coughs. Dan started his new position and first shift and also began work on our front deck. We then bought an old pop up hilo camper that needed some seious work...but is oh so cute! I then began preparing for my new job in Coloma.
We ended the summer by taking the old pop up north camping for labor day weekend. We had a fantastic time being all together.
When we returned Tyler got ready for kindegarten and Sam signed up for dance classes.
Summer came and went very fast due to our constant activities and vacations. It is sad to go back to work but nice to be back on a schedule.

I have pictures that I will post of all of this....soon....I promise.
