Michigan

Last week Nicholas and I had a 48 hour play date in Michigan with some friends who moved there recently, along with some other Indy area friends. We met when our oldest boys were newborns and have been getting together for play dates ever since!


The first day was very windy, which resulted in some really big waves!





Nicholas had a great time waiting for the waves to roll in.


Oops! Not fast enough!


Here are the four original children of the group-Nathan, Issaac, Alex, and Nicholas.





Someone worked hard to make this huge sandcastle. When they left, Nicholas and Alex decided it would be a great place for a picture!


And the moms of the group-Taryn, Rachel, Shontel, and Noelle.


Here they are digging for treasure.


Nicholas really enjoyed the water and playing with his friends.


Here come the scary sharks!

Time with Family

John's parents (Grandad and Grandmom) and sister (Aunt Lily came for a visit last week.


Grandad brought Nicholas a travel Lego kit that belonged to John when he was young.


Claire got a new baby doll from Aunt Lily!


We spent the day hanging out,


playing together,


and reading stories.
