End of July

We always have so many special memories from the Koops cottage vacation! Here are some of the highlights (ps: it's hard to narrow things down when you spend a week together with 5 kids!)

Don't mess with my shoes

Rough life hanging out on the beach all day everyday....Kady did say "no beach-me home" a couple times...I don't think she's related to me at all

special times with Grandpa and Grandma

What do you mean we don't get dessert every night now that we are home?

Smores and pool time

We used the pool quite a bit for rinse off time after the beach, bathing (hey whatever gets them clean fast), and just plain fun. Miss Mya had no fear, and couldn't care less if she slipped and went under....close eyes on that little swimmer


Our girls at the beach...Lucy the fish, and Kadence the snacker...these two pictures about sum up their week!


The Gritter family enjoying the beach

We were total beach bums. Lake Michigan was at least 75 plus degrees everyday! It supplied us with everything we needed, big waves, glassy calmness to float on some rafts (and get my pregnant backside some sun), night swims, and water the kids loved to be in!

Lucy and Reagen LOVE hanging out. They played many games of doctor, doggy (until the poor stethescope leash broke), reading, and playing in the dollhouse

How cute can you get???

Chubby bunny with x-large marshmallows...I have video as well...always a good laugh

The Gritters

Best friends...who pretended they could sleep in the same bed :)

We had beautiful, perfect weather....baby Engbers stayed put, plenty of laughs, books, playtime, eating, and just relaxing! We can't wait for next year when we will have 2 more added to our family!
