New memories, good times....our new summer escape!

Yes, we too are quite shocked at our recent purchase. The Nieuwenhuis' like to do things in waves and it's not like we have anything else on our plates right now.....hhmm....like adopting our 4th baby, 2 trips to Africa, and the list goes on. But, when we saw this dump beauty, we fell in love and could just see our 4 little ones spending summer after summer here making memories.  The cottage itself needs a good makeover, but the 100ft of beautiful sugar sand on Lake Michigan won over our hearts. We welcomed the invitation of this HUGE project and can't wait to "dress it up".

"Big Red" will soon have a new name(-:

42 Steps down to the beach

A good place for morning coffee

The kids couldn't wait to jump in

Our beach...need to start stomping out the beach grass!

The start of many memories

We saw these horse tracks on our beach when we walked down. How cool is that!?
