Hill and Hollow Camping

Our camping trip to Hill and Hollow Campground in Pentwater started out fun and with beautiful weather. Grandpa and Grandma Koopmans came out for a visit and we went to the hidden channel area near Bass Lake. It went down hill from there. Maci ended up in Urgent Care on Monday night with a 102 fever..then in the next day and half all kids had made trip to the Ludington urgent care. Each with high fevers and suspected strep throat on antibiotics. We had a crazy time packing up the trailer, getting our refund and coming home at 1030 at night. Maci and Levi also threw up in the car too. It was the best thing to be home be disappointing that we had to end our time very early. It will be a trip to remember for sure.

Binder Park Zoo

Caleb has been asking for a long time to see a "real live giraffe." So for his fourth birthday we took a day trip to Binder Park Zoo. We had a great time and it was a perfect day for the zoo, cooler and not so hot. We did a lot of walking but enjoyed seeing a new zoo and some different animals.

A dream come true!

All the boys in their Spiderman gear.

Twins?? Good brothers and friends.

Levi Camp Roger

Levi went to a four day session at Camp Roger this summer. He went with a friend from school. He had a great time but was a little nervous when I left him. We wrote him emails and letters. We could check in on him daily with pictures and blog posts. It was a little different with out him at home!! He said that he was ready to come home and missed us too but over all it was a fun and great experience for him.
