Taking a Break

Life has been unusual since Bill's mother's death on the 22nd. There has been little time to update this blog, so I'm posting a few miscellaneous, out of order, random - yet special pictures with little commentary.....

Precious AJ

A friend has flowers available for whoever would like to cut a bouquet - love the idea!

These poppies remind me of Meike's walkway in Obernbreit, Germany....sure do miss seeing her!

Noah running home (Tom is the coach on 3rd base)

Noah playing catcher

California family -Laura & Ben and Amelia
Great fans for Noah :)

Tom, Bill, Steve

Chalk art in the fine town of Byron Center

Tori at Byron's rock

Deven waxing my car

Can hardly believe he has his driver's permit!

We had the most fabulous summer storm in Byron!
The wind tore the metal sheeting off the roof of the old hotel and most of the sheeting
landed in the parking lot on the other side.

Sophie and Abby

Amelia

The glass doors in our house make for great fun :)

Such fun!

This will be my last update for a few weeks.....please check back toward the end of the month.
