Silver Beach
Over Memorial Day weekend we decided to drive to Lake Michigan. There are lots of beaches to choose from, so we went with the closest – Silver Beach. It was just over 2 hours from our house. The weather was beautiful, the sand was perfect, and we had a great time.
Happy Mother’s Day
Happy Mother’s Day Grandma Kotter and Grandma James! Abby and Oliver wanted to let you know how much they love you and tell you how much they wish that you were here right now. Kay and I are also so grateful for you. You are wonderful mothers and great examples to us. Thank you for all that you have done! We love you.
Once there was a snowman
But not today. Oliver and I tried to make a snowman, but the snow just wasn’t cooperating. So instead, we made mini snowmen and then Oliver tipped them over. It was a lot of fun!
Christmas Presents
Who needs Pottery Barn, anyway?
I’m so blessed to be married to an artist!
Abby’s Birthday
Merry Christmas!
Every year at Christmas time, we like to ponder on all of the tender mercies of the Lord that we have experienced during the past year. It helps us remember how grateful we are to our Savior.

Trick or Treating Mania
Kay is the most fantastic mother ever; I had to write this post, because she’s too humble to tell you that herself. She made Oliver a lion costume for Halloween, and it was stunning. Every house I took Oliver to gushed about how wonderful his costume was, and they were all astounded to find out that Kay had made it herself. I am so blessed to be married to such an incredible girl.
