A few of my favorite things...

... Clean smiley babies

... grain fields at sunset

... pretty Spring flowers

... clean laundry on a warm day

... happy nieces

... freshly tilled gardens

Here are a few more pictures from Atlantic City and then a few that I took today.

The thing Jordan loved best about the ocean was eating the sand. :)

Good-bye

Two weeks with Mike and Anna!

I'm spending two weeks with Mike and Anna in PA right now so the next few posts will probably be primarily Jordan. :)

Jordan ready to go out. I love this chance to get to know her better!

Jordan's first bike ride. It was just around the yard. :)

Right now we are staying on the ocean in Atlantic City, NJ for 3 days while Mike is at a Builders Conference. I love having the ocean outside my window!

The view out the window.

Kirsten

Kirsten has to be one of the funniest little girls I have ever seen. The stuff she says is so funny! Last week I got home from work and walked in the door and Kirsten was sitting at the table with Cami eating a snack. I said "Hi Kirsten" and she said "You remember me?" Now in case you think that means I never see her, I had seen her twice in the few days before that.
Then she came to our house a few days later and I asked her what she had for lunch. All she said was "I don't like apple sauce."

You can't really see it, but she's wearing a pin that says "Think milk, Drink milk" and that's what she's saying in this video. She thought the video was the greatest thing ever and walked around saying "Think milk, Drink milk" for a long time.

Last week Grandpa and Grandma Kinzie were here and Grandma asked Kirsten if she helps milk the cows. She looked up sweetly and said "No, I can't reach their udders."

And this last picture is just to prove that Spring is coming! It's a beautiful morning out there!

The busy week-end

Here are some pictures of our big week-end. It started Thursday night with Grandpa, Grandma, my aunt and a cousin of my Grandma's coming. Then Friday night Mike and Anna came and were here till Saturday afternoon when we went with them up to Mike's parents about 2 hours north.

I took some pictures of Cole on Darrell's Jeep.

I love her smiles that she gives out very freely!

Joe and couple friends flew in from Ohio so we all went and watched them take off before we left on Sunday.

Our evening

We don't have the game "Settlers" and everyone was wanting to play it, so they got out the computers and played that version. All of the Gawin ladies except Martha came down for a few days so we are having fun with them!

Spring?

This is what we found when we woke up this morning. Such is life when you live in Michigan. At least it won't last long.
