MI times

We arrived to a chilly MI, but it didn't stop us from enjoying our favorite-blueberry picking!  As the week went on and things warmed up, we had time for plenty of outdoor fun with the cousins & even some celebratory birthday ice cream with daddy before the week was up.

 

And then...off we go again!  California, here we come!  Thanks for all the fun times :)

too much fun...

Time to hit the road & catch up on some zzzz's.  On to Michigan!!

 

Indy!

Next stop, Indianapolis!  Our friends, the Nors, treated us to a day of fun on the farm.  Looks like we may have some naturals on our hands! Mama Barta not included....:)

 

go west...

California here we come! But first stop...southern Indiana.  The weather was perfect for lots of outdoor fun from swimming to hanging at the lake-and just right for slushees, even for the big kids :)

 

 

happy 4th...and other vaca fun :)

Cousins being silly!

Girls day out with 4th ready toes ;)

Summer is on!  We left DC and hit the beaches in Delaware. 

What a way to kick it off :)

Turning Two!

 

Not to be overlooked in all the moving excitement, our little Hads turned 2!! 

 

the end.....

The end of the year brought on all kinds of emotions as we cheered in the summer as well as parted with good friends for the last time.  We have enjoyed you, DC area, and all the wonderful friends and memories we have made here!
