Grace's Birthday and the Dunes





















On Wednesday, we went to the Warren Dunes in Michigan for Grace's sixth birthday. We were pretty nervous on the way there because storms and clouds were rolling in about half way there, but the day turned out to be a beautiful one! Chris made her a sandy cake and she blew out her six stick candles : ) It was Colt's first time at the big beach and he loved the water and especially the sand - we had to keep a real close eye on him because he kept wanting to throw the sand at everyone (leave it to Colt) : ) We had a wonderful time and got a little sun and best of all, we got to spend some quality family time before school starts next week.

Grace's Haircut



On Tuesday we decided to cut Grace's hair dramatically. Since school is starting next Thursday, we decided on a simple, easy solution to our daily hair combing dilemma - cut it off! : ) I LOVE this haircut and it makes her look so much older! The picture on the left is Grace before, the picture on the right is after.
