Graduation!

Joshua graduated yesterday! ...well, kinda. It was a party for his Bright Beginnings class. We had great food and fun times with games and pinatas. Here is Joshua with his teachers Ms Nikki and Ms May. Stacey and I dominated the bean bag game! Wohoo!

Monster Truck 1

Joshua under the Flap Jack Monster Truck... We saw it outside and stopped to check it out when we were coming home from Petoskey on Memorial Day. On a side note we also ran into Tim Nixon, the morning radio personality for Lite 96.3. We ended up hanging out with him a bit and having some good conversation - nice guy.

My Master Gardener!

Stacey planted a wonderful garden for my mom!

Amazing man!

Not only is my grandpa amazing because he is 90 and still rides his bike to the garden center...but he is the most humble man I know who loves Jesus with all he is. We love you grandpa!

Friends...

All the kids! Poor Haley got poked in the eye by Benjamin ... But those girls love to hold him. Just stopped over there for a bit this morning and had a great little visit. We both think about how wonderful it would be to see our kids grow up and play together.
... Now off to our garden center to see the family and get some plants for my mom. Stacey is going to help my mom plant a perineal garden today.

Divine Appointments

Myah, Benjamin, and Haley. What an amazing trip downstate so far... with simple but wonderful moments. To run into some of our closest friends from downstate - Kevin, Angela, and their kids. It just keeps getting better. We love you guys!

Cute!

On the move!

Mikaela and Benjamin

Stacey, I and the boys went to DQ and "Mom's" beach. Soon after, one of my great Chem students came over and took Benjamin. Mikaela and Stacey struck up a conversation and now it seems we have a future babysitter! :)
