Charlevoix July 4th

One of my favorite places to be is at Grandma and Grandpa's up in Charlivox! It is so relaxing and just Beautiful! We had such a great time Up North this year! Well poor Calvin had a hard time with his back but he really enjoyed the relaxing. It was so nice to see most of the family and can't wait to see everyone again on the next time we all get together! Jon and Darlene Calvin's parents joined us and it was very nice having them along! Here are all of the fun memories of this year's July 4th!

All Dress Up!

Calvin and I were in our friend's (Paul and Jeanie) wedding on May 31st. We had a great time and got all dressed up!

Visting Tyler & Kalen

I went to Alabama in May to lend a hand to Bri and Mike after they had Kalen. I had so much fun with everyone! Tyler is just a great kid I love spending all the time I can with him, and Kalen is just a little angle! I had fun shopping for a little niece we went on a few shopping sprees! Tyler actually liked shopping for his little sister with me!

Bri and Mike got Tyler a little pool which he loved, it also help the time pass when he was bored.

I had a great time and can't wait to go back and visit!!

My pictures are when Kalen was 2 weeks old she is a lot bigger now!!

Here's a video of Tyler in the pool So Cute!!

Beach with Tyler and Izzie

So the other thing that we did while Tyler and Bri where in town was going to the beach. We went with our friends Robert and Katie. They have 2 children Izzie who is about 18 months and Aj who is about 3 months, they are really cute kids and a very nice family. I wanted Tyler to meet Izzie and let him have some kid time. He had a lot of fun at the beach with Izzie. After the beach we went back to there house so Tyler could play a little more with Izzie. Kaite made us a wonderful dinner which we all enjoyed.

Swimming at Grandma Kloote's

Well while Tyler and Brianna where here at the end of April we did a lot of activities. The first thing that we did together was swimming a Grandma Kloote's house. Tyler calls her "Grandma Cute" to funny! He is such a good swimmer. Brianna got him some water wings and he loved swimming with those. He also liked to jump off of the deck, but he had to hold Brianna's finger. The other thing he was doing was with the dumb-bells, he would hit them together and then raise them up and said "Tough Guy" so funny!

The Z Girls

Yeah Yeah I know I haven't been updating! I was going thru pictures on my computer and I decided to add a few posts. Calvin is watching the Red Wings game, and I'm listening him yell at the t.v and he is jumping in and out of the recliner. Pretty Funny!!! Stanley Cup here we come!!!


So back to Easter the Zdanowski girls came to Orlando with their dad. So it's kind of a tradition now that when they come I'll drive up there and spend a few day's with them. The past three years I've done that and we have such a great time. Can't wait for the next years to come!

Well this time it was a little chilly like last year but we stuck it out and went to Wet n' Wild. The best part was that barely any people were there so there were no lines!!! We had lots of fun I got Katie and Claire on some cool slides! Taylor did real well with the big slides also! After the water park Bob got us tickets to the Arabian Knights dinner show. http://www.arabian-nights.com/
Talk about amazing!! Check out that website and it shows what it is. We went and saw all of the horses before the show and got to pet them, so cute. The show was great we sat and ate our meal as we are watching this live show with horses and people doing acrobats and tricks with the horses. The horses are so smart and knew exactly what to do. They would dance and everything. I recommend that show to anyone who goes to Orlando!

So that was my trip with the girls Claire, Katie and Taylor was great and can't wait to see them for the July 4th weekend!

Home Improvements

Well we had some company the last month if you don't know already. The Coddington's (Jon, Darlene, G-ma, & G-pa) were here and then my Dad, Brianna, and Tyler were here. Well while the Coddington's where here they were such a wonderful help to us! They brought down some things that I had purchased while I was home in January. My Goose!! I absolutely love my Goose she is to cute!

They also brought down this antique sewing machine that Jon and Darlene refinished for me! I'm so turning into my Mom!

One other thing that they did was put cabinets up in our laundry room!! I was so happy to get this done. We went out to Home (rep-off) Depot and Lowes looking for cabinets. We found some real nice ones at Lowes. Good quality and not to expensive! So the next day I went to work and came home to find my cabinets were already up!!! Jon and Grandpa worked all morning and afternoon on putting them up. I was so excited!! It makes such a difference and I can hide stuff now!

Thanks so much for all the home improvements, and we enjoyed the time we had with you!!
