A day at the beach


Andrew and I surprised my parents and showed up at their church yesterday for mother's day. We had plans to get together with the family for supper later, so we decided to spend the afternoon at the beach in Grand Haven. 

It was a beautiful day. Sunny, but with a cool breeze. We spent some time walking the boardwalk, got some ice cream, and lounged by the lighthouse.


(It would seem that taking a selfie and smiling at the same time is not something I can do!)

There were even a few boats out on the lake.


I have to imagine that it was chilly out there!

It was a great relaxing afternoon. I need more days like that!

  5. Awesome. Any time spent where water meets both sky and land, is of infinite value. And you sleep so well that night! I hope you all had a truly wonderful Mother's Day. xoxo
