Chi-Town

We went to Chicago to celebrate our (youngest) friend Joey's 30th birthday!  We had a blast and enjoyed some quality adult time.  Dinners, shopping, dancing...So much fun!

Fourth of July

We watched the fireworks this year from Boatwerks in Holland with Matt's family. It was a beautiful night and we had a nice little patch of grass to take in the sights. The fireworks didn't start until 10:30pm, so we had a lot of time to kill. What better way than to take pictures!

Mark's First Birthday

There is a reason why I wanted to post these pics...besides the fact that he is the cutest thing ever. This will probably be the last first birthday that we celebrate in this family in a long time. Well, unless someone has a little surprise I suppose. So here they are. Mark turned one! Rach has outdone herself again with those awesome cookie monster cupcakes.
