Summer Visitors

My brother's kids from DC came for two weeks this summer and it was eventful! One week was spent in GR and the next up north with Uncle Marv and Aunt Linds.

We kicked things off with a FIRST lost tooth! Tooth Fairy is good, she didnt miss a beat.

Saturday Uncle Peter took us to a Civil War reenactment and told us all the details. Sam LOVED watching everything happen.

Ellen enjoyed spending time with her cousin cat Madge, the feeling was mostly mutual ;)

Father's Day was celebrated in fine style with friends on the shores of Lake Michigan.

Rita and Grace headed off to camp with their buddies first thing Monday morning. Oh. What. JOY! and maybe a little apprehension....

Rachel and Rita made fast friends :)

That left Sam and Ellen to come over and play with their Uncle Peter. We've got a suction cup Nerf gun and treats...who wouldnt come?!

Thursday night Sam and Ellen came for their very own cookout and s'mores.

And a walk with their favorite uncle; he's hard to beat.

Friday night they were back in order to stay the night and head for vacation bright and early. Ellie was delighted to play with her friend Madge again :)

Sam got to pick out a few fireworks with Uncle Peter - joy! joy! joy!

And then Saturday it was a roadtrip to the Great White North! Stowaway included...

Week 2 adventures await!
