Berries

We picked blueberries with Libby, Nathaniel and Naomi this week. Here are the boys, hard at work. This might be the only moment they were actually picking. If you asked them, they might say we went there to run up and down the rows or roll in the dirt.

Josie would like to show you how much she is enjoying her blueberry pancakes. She did not so much enjoy the head scrub in the bath tub after breakfast to get the blueberry-stain out of her hair.

Just a cute picture from the park this week--she's getting so tall!

'Doats' and other fun stuff at the zoo

Checking out the sting rays with Sam

Too cool for words (or a smile)

This was about as gentle as she was with the goats.

Staying cool

Popsicles in the pool. Yes, Josie is naked in the front yard. At least Caleb has underwear on.

Happy 4th of July

We spent the 3rd and 4th at the Cottage. Josie loved riding the toboggan...

...and sitting in the foot bucket. We made sure to change the water out frequently.

The 5th in St. Joe. the kids loved playing in the fountain.

Holland Beach vacation

Here is a bunch of my favorite pictures from our vacation last week:

Helping me pack (I don't know where her shirt is)

This was her idea

Too bad we had to tell Caleb he couldn't marry his cousin.

Happy Birthday to Josie!

"I want to do it myself"

Back at the cottage

Caleb was so excited to go back to the cottage (we should have counted the number of times he said that on the way there). He played in the water and sand all day, had a ride behind the boat and jumped off the pontoon boat.
