Summer Days....

We have been pretty busy this summer. I have so many great pictures to share. We have made a few trips out to Lake Michigan, the kids have gone to Vacation Bible School, Kennedy went to camp, we've attended open houses, been invited to pool parties, seen fire-works, went to a tractor farm show (sounds a little dumb, but it was actually pretty cool and the kiddo's loved it.) Spent the last week saying good-bye to Brian's brother and family who are moving out of state. My dad came in for a surprise visit (the kids even got their first Harley Rides!) The kids have caught about 50 frogs, we've all had the flu, Kennedy has been working so hard this summer with a tutor, we are SO proud of her! So much going on, and if you can imagine even more running through the thoughts of our heads. Brian and I BOTH applied to GRCC. We both took the placement tests (sitting in the same room, it was kinda funny!) We both are currently deciding what direction we are taking individually in our lives and as a family. Could be some big DeYoung changes before too long. So much in our lives have changed over the last year...hopefully there will be some exciting things to come.


Blake getting ready to play in Lake Michigan.


Cole driving an Old John Deer for the first time!

Kennedy riding with "Motorcycle Papa", He said that she was a natural...and reminded him of when I used to go on long bike rides with him as a young girl.

Dawson marching in the 4th of July Parade for the first time ever! We were so proud, and so was he!

Last, but of course not least, Aleigha splashing in the waves at Lake Michigan.
