The alphabet song

SINGING...favorite past time :)

ECHO

Ally loves to hear the echo in the new house that is being built. I'm pretty sure she will be sad when we get carpet and furniture in this place!

FIREWORKS!!!!

Ally really enjoys the fireworks (for the most part). She usually starts with hiding under a blanket and peaking out to check out the first few fireworks but then she slowly creeps out and eventually is saying "WOW" and "here comes another one". Tonight at Celebration on the Grand in Grand Rapids, she said "fireworks look like M&M's". This girl really loves her chocolate :)

princess dancing

Ally loves to dress up and spin around and around. You'll also notice that she has really started to use more and more words every day.

Sand dune exploration

Summertime in Michigan requires a visit to our beautiful sand dunes! We enjoy taking our boat to Silver Lake and riding over to the "dune side" to not only play on the gorgeous beaches but to climb the hot sand dunes :)

backyard pool

This is the only way to enjoy your backyard when it's over 90 degrees out...
