A Wedding to Remeber!

A good friend of mine, who I met in nursing school, just got married this past weekend. I had the honor of being her personal attendant and was able to stay by her side for the whole day and help her out. It was such an amazing wedding, everything was absolutely gorgeous and turned out perfect! Here are a few pictures from my camera of the day.

So happy I was able to get my picture with Amie, and by the professional photographer no less!

Garden Update

Our garden is doing great! We currently are picking cucumbers, green and yellow beans, and cilantro like crazy right now! Pretty soon we will have corn, green peppers, and tomatoes. This is totally Alec's project, the only credit I can take is the occasional watering and picking the veggies. I am thankful he has a super green thumb!


This is the garden in june...



And now 2 months later, this is the garden...

DeKruyter Camping Trip 2011 Edition

Every summer the DeKruyter family does a camping trip in west Michigan. We typically go to Hoffmaster state park in Muskegon, which is where we returned to this year! The weather was pretty good, we got a little rain here and there and it was pretty hot. But since we were really close to the water and our whole site was in the shade we stayed plenty cool.


We had a really great time though, it was fun to hang out with the family again and have lots of beach time. Josie of course loved it, she was filthy by the end of the trip from digging in the dirt all week.


Always have to go to Wippie-Dip and get some ice-cream.



We broke the rules and brought Josie down to the beach, she LOVED running up the dunes and even went for a swim in the big lake.



Its not a camping trip unless you have a hotdog roast!



I think Lake Michigan is so amazing.
