At the Beach

It's finally warmed up a bit here and we've been able to spend a few days at the beach. We've been spending most of our time at Silver Beach in St. Joe so yesterday we decided to head up to New Buffalo for a change of scenery. We had a great time playing in the waves and even stopped off at Redamak's for dinner and our first taste of the famous burgers. Definitely worth the trip! :-)

Here are just a couple pictures of Sarah & Steve playing in the water. Enjoy!

A Little Indoor Fun

Due in part to the rain we woke up to on Saturday morning, we decided to take Sarah bowling for the first time. Sarah really seemed to enjoy herself and I'm happy to report that no balls were dropped on toes in the process! :-)

Here are a few pics of our day at Strikes & Spares! Enjoy!


Getting ready to bowl!






This was how Sarah passed the time when she wasn't bowling. Too funny! :-)

Singing in the Rain

We finally had a little bit of rain here Saturday morning and Sarah couldn't wait to get outside in her new rain gear. She's been wearing everything in the house the past couple of weeks so you can only imagine how excited she was to head outside. She loves everything, but the umbrella is definitely her favorite. A big thank you to Grammy for her new look! :-)

Simple Pleasures

I guess it really is all about the little things in life! :-)

A Day at the Zoo

On Saturday we took Sarah to the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo and had a wonderful time. Their new "African Journey" exhibit opened earlier this summer and it did not disappoint! Watching Sarah feed a giraffe and go for her first pony ride made the 1.5 hour trip worth it. A great time was had by all!

Here are a few pictures of our day. Enjoy!

Riding "Cookie." Sarah wasn't too sure to begin with, but had a great time in the end.


Posing for the camera

Here's a short video of Sarah riding Cookie. I honestly think I was more excited about this than she was! Too cute! :-)
