Vacation and life!

Last week we went back to west michigan for a week long vacation. IT was interesting and Elaine decided to go through a phase of no naps and not wanting to sleep at night. IT was a very stressful first part of the week.
We enjoyed the week by spending lots of time with family and friends. We had dinner with our pastor and his family. Went for walks on the boardwalk, ate lots of ice cream and went to the parks and zoo with friends. Josh was able to go golfing a few times and catch up with some friends. I had a couple days alone too. I had a girls day with my friend Brea, we went to see the Proposal and had some quality girl time with out kids. some highlights of our vacation were:

* norman ran into a HUGE nest of bees and was stung many times, poor guy was tired and licking his wounds for a couple days.

* family picnics!

* Jacob blew out his pants a few times! one even made it onto Aunt Lindsey!

* we bought a Wii!

* I took Elaine to the beach for some girl time,we had a blast building castles in the sand :)

* Norman and Fiona went the beach in muskegon too! Elaine loved chasing them in the water and Playing with Aunt Lisa in the waves!

* we discovered Aunt Lisa and Uncle Jon has Noggin!!

*the Zoo
* mommy also got to sleep in a few times and take a couple naps!! YES

It was a very fun and relaxing time, only next year we want to come a week later and have some fun with Coast Guard too. Now that we are back home we have found a place to live for the rest of out time here, we will be renting a house in a subdivison called Hidden Creek in Wixom, Michigan we are going to be moving in the next week or so. It is a nice 2 story home with 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths and a finished basement with another full kitchen. I have been busy packing the house up again. Its hard to pack during the summer though when its nice out and all i want to do is play outside with the kids. Its been a busy few weeks!
