Father's Day

Our family is so lucky to have Steve as our husband and daddy! For so many, many reasons...he works so hard for our family, he goes to the office super early, just to make sure he can be home in the afternoon to play with our little humans, he wrestles with them, plays dress-up, prays with them, sings to them at night, holds their hand, snuggles with them, bakes cookies, and reads.
 
(And I'm sure a million other things!)
 
 
We love you, Daddy!
 
"And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates."
 
Deuteronomy 6:6-9
 
"In the fear of the Lord one has strong confidence,
    and his children will have a refuge."
 
Proverbs 14:26


Summer Vacation In Oscoda

This year, we got to go to Michigan to spend the week with Steve's family in Oscoda. We love this trip! It's a chance to spend a relaxing week with sisters, brothers, nieces, nephews, Grandma, and Grandpa. There's just nothing like it! Steve calls it "camping with walls", and it's true...there is a cluster of simple little cabins, right on the beach...nothing fancy, but so much fun!
 
This year, Steve and I wanted to take a day and spend some time with just our family. So, somewhere in these pictures is a mix of our day together. We celebrated Father's Day, our anniversary, and a whole lot of beach time during that week, too. There were family dinners, s'mores by the fire, swimming, fishing, and ice cream! (And wind...lots and lots of wind!)
 
Here they are!
 
















































 
Loved this week with family! And we loved all of the precious memories we made with our kids!
