As I’ve said before, one of the things I loved the most about living in Grand Haven was the beach. I would spend all day every day at the beach if I could, so one of the things on my Must Do on Vacation list was go to the beach.…
Most of the summer my kids begged for a kitten. Every time there was a kitten on TV: “Can we get a kitten? Please, please, pleeeeeaaaaassssseee!” Every time there were kittens in the pet store: “Can we get a kitten? Please, please, pleeeeeaaaaassssseee!” College Boy even got into the act,…
We wrapped up our first day of vacation with dinner at Teacher’s brother’s house. We hadn’t seen his family for a couple of years so we were looking forward to it. It had been so long since we’d seen them that we’d never met their youngest yet. She’s almost 3…
