Memorial Day Weekend 2010

Since Todd was on the fishing trip for Memorial Day weekend, Nathan and I decided to shake things up a bit, and spend some time with the Lepley family at their cottage in Newaygo. They were so incredibly sweet to welcome us into their holiday weekend. The kids all had a blast! Nathan thinks that Ellie is the most amazing girl on the planet, and he and Gavin actually got along well for the most part (with occasional pauses in the action to yell MINE at each other!). The weather was incredibly warm for Michigan in May; it felt more like July! Being an inland lake, the water was warm enough for swimming. Nathan wasn't a huge fan of the water, but he really loved playing in the sand and on all of the riding toys.

It was really great to spend so much time with Suz in a setting far away from work. We actually got lots of time to talk without being in an office or talking about work stuff--such a luxury! And it was so great to see her totally relaxed and in "mom mode" rather than "admission counselor mode." I'd be willing to bet she'd say the same about me!
