Sprinkler Park

Here is a video from last week when Corina and I took Matthew to the Canton Sprinkler park. Too bad I don't have the video where Corina turned on the sprinklers as I was in the middle of the fountain trying to get Matthew :-) I'm sure it was quite a funny sight to see as I ran out trying not to get soaking wet. Anyhow, our little water-boy is sure to love this summer, with his fascination with water!!

The Tissue Game

Here is Matthew playing with his favorite toy...next to the cell phone, of course!!

Tree Down

Last Sunday, as the severe storms came through Metro Detroit, we had a tree casualty. Greg and I were giving Matthew a bath when we heard a loud crash. We thought it was thunder, but came to find out that it was a huge limb of our Silver Maple tree in front of our home that came crashing to the ground. We said a prayer of thanksgiving that it was not the largest of the three branches that fell, which would have no other place to fall except right into the front of our house, where both of our bedrooms are! The city has plans to take the rest of the tree down in the beginning of July. Until then, we are praying for no more winds. Here are some of the aftermath photos we took that night.

Self Feeding is Messy!!

Memorial Day at Port Huron

We spent all day Monday (Memorial Day) in Port Huron at the White House cottage. It was a beautiful day, which was supposed to be rainy, but never did. It was so fun seeing Matthew's reaction to the sand and water, now that he is a little older. I think he is going to be a beach bum yet :-)
