Falling Apart

My younger boys are rough and tumble pretty much all the time. They leave a trail of broken and battered things where ever they go. Their bunk bed completely fell apart, so we decided just to put their mattresses on the floor for now. They since jump and crash on all the furniture no matter how many times we tell them not to, so I wasn't going to risk buying more furniture for them to ruin. This week their door finally met its maker. It was splitting up the side, because of how hard they slam it, and it finally came completely off. They are now without a door. I'll put a new one on when they leave for college. We won't mention all the holes in the wall. Sigh.

Sunday School

These boys are so much fun. I'm so glad Little Man has such a great group of friends at church.

Lake Day!

We finally had our first lake day yesterday! We look forward to it every year. We started at Hillsdale State Park. There was almost no beach, because the lake is so high right now. We've had a ton of rain this season. It made it rather convenient that we could be under the shade of the tree that's usually far away from the water.

Lake day, we love you!

Lily pads

We've had some lovely walks this week. I'm so glad the we didn't miss the blooming flowers on the lily pads this year. They only last for a few short weeks each year.

High Adventure

BB and Little Man headed to Clinton Lake this week for sailing, shooting, paint ball, and ended the week at the temple. They had a great time! It turns out BB is quite the sharp shooter (he's got some battle wounds to show for it as well).

The Rabbit Hole

While Little Man and BB are off on High Adventure, Little Lady and Little Guy had fun exploring the Rabbit Hole. It is the most adorable museum for childhood memories through books. We couldn't get enough - it was SO fun!
