Beautiful Fall Weekend

We had a fun weekend, enjoying everything Grand Rapids.
Oktoberfest at our neighbors' house last night was a blast for everyone. The kids lived the bounce house!
And Meijer Gardens was beautiful this afternoon - spectacular mums.

September Camping

We had such a great time camping at Diamond Lake campground last weekend. The weather was beautiful. We hiked in Manistee National Forest and came upon the ruins of an old farm. We swam in the lake (in September!), enjoyed campfires and cupcakes, and the kids loved using Sean's metal detector to hunt for treasures. We look forward to visiting again next summer.

First Day of School

Mer was so excited for her first day of school! She had her outfit picked out four days ago. We took a photo with the neighborhood kids and walked to school. Charlie wasn't interested in taking pictures this morning, but he went with us to walk our second grader to school.
