The cottage!

Every year we look forward to a weekend with the Clark's on Lake Michigan. This year the weather was perfect! We could not have asked for better! What an awesome weekend!

Beautiful Sunset!

Whitecaps!

We headed out with the Peuler side to a warm night at the Whitecaps!


Seeing how fast they can throw...

Elliot was really hamming it up!

Fun with the cousins!

fun shot we took while Aline was back for a visit!

Air Show & 4th of July

We headed down to the Battle Creek Airshow one Saturday this Summer and checked out all the fun. The kids really enjoyed seeing all the planes.

They also really enjoyed getting their faces painted!

afterwards we enjoyed some fireworks with the neighbors & clark grandparents! So nice when you can just enjoy them from your front yard!

The kids are posing with their glow swords!

Summer Pictures!

So I took the kids out to take some new pictures for our living room....here is what we got!

This is Madi & Isaac when they like each other! :)

Being silly!

the three of them

My boys!

And then some shots by the pool! We've spend a lot of hours in the driveway already soaking up the sunshine!

I love this one!

Madi turns 7!

This past weekend we did lots of celebrating. We combined Madi, both dads & Mason all into to Fathers Day/Birthday Parties! I think Madi really does like sharing them with her Papa's and Mason! It was definitely a day full of fun!

This year Madi wanted butterfly's and flowers for her party. For the Clark side she chose fruit pizza....so this is what she got!

Group shot with all the cousins.

The girls....Love this one!

The birthday girl.

On the Peuler side we did a cake version and spent lots of time swimming at Aunt Dana's!

Madi & Papa...sharing their birthdays!

The other birthday boy....

Her own Illini hat!

All the kids swarming Dad!

Sleeping.

Here is Isaac fast asleep...still reading his bible. Guess he was pretty tired.
