Day 243

Somebody was tired.  This going back to school stuff is hard, even if you are only going three mornings a week.

Day 242

In the 40 years of having this house, I had never seen mushrooms grow in the trees.  Now, I've seen two in the last few months.

Day 241

I was just walking around the yard shooting some pictures.  I didn't realize until I put them on the computer that I was up close and personal with a daddy long legs spider.

Day 240

When it is 97 after school, what better place to cool off than grammy and poppa's pool!

Day 239

Love this!

Day 238

Jack got the rotten end of a collision with Lizzy.

He still looks adorable!

Day 237

The kids table!

Day 236

A gorgeous full moon.

Day 235

I love this picture of Natalie and Lizzy!

Day 234

Sunset at the beach last night.

Day 233

How cute is this little tiki hut at Grand Mere Beach in Michigan?

Day 232

They still have some pretty blossoms at the zoo.

Day 231

From the top of the observation tower at Washington Park Zoo.

Day 230

We renewed our wedding vows for our 40th anniversary.  Just us and the kids and grandkids.  Just the 13 of us, in our own backyard with our favorite priest ever.  Who could ask for more than that? 

It was an awesome day. 

Day 229

We took the grandkids to the zoo yesterday and Natalie and Jack loved the otter tunnel.

Day 228

I'm going to miss when I go for walks and don't see all these pretty flowers everywhere I go.

Day 227

Goggles and a salute are definitely what you need to drive the boat.

Gosh, I love that girl.

Day 226

She's such a cute little peanut!

Day 225

There aren't going to be many of these left.

Most of them are done and I'm going to miss them.

Day 224

It's a good thing he has me to dress him!

Day 223

Oh, he just melts my heart!

Day 222

Hanging out downtown waiting to get our picture taken.

Day 221

So much beauty in the summer.

Day 220

This is such a simple picture, but I love the colors.

Day 219

So very true!

Day 218

Natalie loves baby Finnegan.

Day 217

Such a beautiful blue!

Day 216

I'm really sad that they cancelled the Gary Air Show.  I loved going and taking pictures like this.  I took this one in 2011.

Day 215

Another beach walk favorite.

Day 214

I went for a walk on the beach yesterday.  I loved that the rain didn't wash away someone's handiwork.

Day 213

Jack made a new buddy last night and he said he didn't even care if Finnegan punched him in the nose.  Man, I love that boy.  His new buddy is awful cute too.
