Happy Memorial Day!

We had a great Memorial Day weekend!  Grandma and Grandpa Berciunas came for a visit on Thursday.

 Mike had Friday off so we spent a long weekend at home.

Great Grandma Stephenson got Garrett his own set of gardening tools and he was taking them everywhere with him today.  It was so cute!

Thank you to all the men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom!  Happy Memorial Day!

My Birthday Week!

Grandma S’s nephew and his family were visiting the week of my birthday.  It was so great to spend time with Jill, Levi and Lucas!  Garrett and Lucas had so much fun playing together and I loved catching up with Jill!  They are expecting twins (a boy and a girl) in September.  We are so excited for them!

Grandma S and Great Grandma Stephenson came to babysit the kids for us, on my birthday, so we could go out for dinner.  We went to Grand Haven and had a wonderful dinner by the lake.

We met Jill and Levi at their hotel and took all the kids swimming.  It was the first time Avery had been in the pool.  It was a little chilly but she did great.

The boys hugging goodbye!  It was so sweet!  I think it’s a hint that they need to move closer!

Happy Mother’s Day!

I had a wonderful Mother’s Day!  I’m so thankful for my beautiful babies, they are such a blessing!  Happy Mother’s Day to our mom’s as well!  We love you!

Things have been super crazy around here lately.  Garrett had surgery on an infected tear duct, last week.  My parents came down and stayed with Avery.  Grandma Deb and Grandpa Mark came down Friday.  The helped us work on the yard and brought some trees for us.  After they left on Saturday, we went and got my Mother’s Day present.  I picked out 3 white hydrangea bushes and a blueberry bush.  Sunday we spent the day working in the yard.  We planted all the trees that Grandma Deb and Grandpa Mark brought, along with my hydrangeas.  We also planted the entire garden, which is 3 times bigger than it originally was.  It’s been a lot of work but I’m so glad we’re done now!
