a little princess...playing with mommy on a rainy day...

Fall Camping in Rocky Mtn National Park

Estes Park, Colorado

We had a weekend of bonding, trying to stay warm and lots of laughs around the campfire with the Boonstras and McCaigs. All seven of the kids had fun and we even got to put Kaatje's hiking stamina to the test. We can never get enough of the mountains! Here are a few pics before the camera batteries ran out...

Our little preschooler!

(She wasn't real excited about getting her picture taken!)

Still dreaming of the beach!

He's finally walking and so proud! Go, Brodster!

Our true reason for picking 8/8/08 for travel was the Joel and Amanda TenBrink wedding!

It was a lot of fun! Good times! We didn't get a lot of photos because our whole family was in the wedding...but enjoy these..some funny ones and a glimpse of the big event.

Lake Michigan...we can never get enough of the beach!
