Ludington Vacation



We decided to take a much needed family vacation over the Memorial weekend holiday. Somehow we randomly chose Ludington because of an indoor water park they had at one of their hotels. Once there, we kept the kids so busy that they never had time to whine or complain about anything :).

The kids both experienced a bunch of "firsts" on this vacation. Ethan went on a water slide by himself for the first time(this is BIG for him). Nolan went putt-putt golfing for the first time. Ethan and Nolan both rode go-carts for the first time. Ethan discovered the teeter-totter.

We also went to the beach which was absolutely beautiful (Michigan has some of the most gorgeous beaches!). The boys flew a kite with Kevin and quickly got bored, so Nolan decided to roll around in the sand while Ethan went on the swings and teeter totter. Ethan's favorite thing to do on the entire vacation was play the "grabber" game in the hotel game room. See pics.

Soccer Game



Ethan had his first outdoor soccer game yesterday. The temperature was in the low 90’s and took its toll on the kids. Ethan is a natural blocker (watch his left arm in the video) and he hasn't quite figured out what goal he was supposed to be kicking it to. It was fun to watch all the little boys run after the ball.
