My New Favortie Place

Jack has enjoyed being back in Arizona. He is rediscovering our house after having been gone for a month. Seems he found a new favorite place...

Taking in some "Nemo".

Hey, hey, hey, wanna play?

Figured you'd wanna play. I'm pretty fun.

Yep, feels sturdy to me.

Summer in Grand Rapids

After time spent with friends on the shores of Lake Michigan, it was time to visit with family in Grand Rapids.  Jack has a new cousin named Lily who we were all excited to meet, and the grandparents were obviously excited to spend some time with Jack as well.
The visit seemed to be focused on the outdoors.  We visited the Frederick Meijer Gardens, Jack helped Grandma Camille water some flowers, and we enjoyed a relaxing day at the beach in Grand Haven.

trying to get three grand kids to look and smile at once is impossible
