A Busy Summer

Anna and Seth have spent a lot of time together as they are preparing for their wedding.

Having Seth at our house so much is almost as if I had one of my sons home again....this is a happy time for me.













Anna had her bridal shower on August 3rd--it was fun and she was so excited...Her friend, Tasha came all the way from Hillsdale to be able to surprise Anna!!









 Samuel had his 2nd birthday party at the cottage with cousins, Henry and George..Samuel tries to be just like the older boys!! He got some nice gifts but I think he enjoyed his cake the most..

 The park in Traverse City where Doug and I used to take Anna many years ago....it is still a great park and Samuel loved it...




 Red Park on the new big tree stump--many trees have been taken down this past year and five new ones were planted. Part of that was in memory of mom who loved the cottage and Red Park in Onekama, Michigan.





 Little brother, Ezra (better known as Ezzie) was always smiling and such a good baby...he is only 6 months old but weighs 22lbs!!!  He loved the playpen and all the attention he got from Aunt Anna, Grandma and Grandpa!






What would be a visit to Michigan without a trip to the Cherry Hut!! We never got over to Gwen Frostic's but perhaps in September there will be time. Ha ha
 Doug and Seth showed George some gun smarts and he loved making lots of holes in the target with his BB gun!  Henry paid attention to Tacy--throwing the ball for her and brushing her..but he did not like dog drool, he said!!







 Seth gave the boys and Christy a tour of the Coast Guard Station and the boat--thanks, Seth! they loved it.






 We visited dad at Sutter--they were all sitting outside and Christy got Dad talking about the cottage and his sailing adventures...When they said goodbye, he told Christy not to let the boys ruin his cottage!!!  Some things never change...







 Anna went home with Lena and Adam to help with the boys and just to have some sister time before she is no longer a single lady....

She had fun with Ezzie
 An evening at Navy Pier

 Sisters forever because of Jesus






Ezra, Lena, Adam and Samuel     
Love you all....
