Enjoy a few pics from our trip to Barbados, just returned last night. Shots are from ‘Sea Isle’, from the beach, another trip to see the monkeys at the Wildlife Preserve and finally golf at Royal Westmoreland:

 

The final standings!   See you all next year:

Them Picks

A few photos from various events, including a trip to get the pumpkins at Wiards, carving the pumpkins (yes, Michael’s choice required a saw to slice open), a pre-10/31 celebration in Saline featuring Abby and Michael in their Astronaut* outfits, and a couple of random shots including Abby’s “Daisy” (pre-Girl Scouts) induction, and an 8-point buck in our backyard this week:

Last week I took Abby and Mike to see their big cousin Jack play tackle football for his squad.  Jack was all over the field like a crazed dog: kicking, punting, running, tackling..and getting it done:

 

Thanks for everyone who made it out to the new spot.  A great day – weather held up for the most part and Michigan State takes a step closer to evening the all-time Dooley Brothers series with a crazy overtime win.

Ron and Dad watched the game on the field and a great time was had by all.

 

Congrats to K’s and Mr. Kuehne on securing the marathon 2009 Tri-State golf league title last night – their first!   A few photos confirming the championship!

The JDRF Walk in East Lansing is coming up quick, this year on August 8th on the MSU Campus. Consider joining us on August 8th and/or supporting the walk team. If you can make it, please sign up you and your family on the walk page (click Join This Team).

Dina put together a wonderful video that gives you a sense a how Jack deals with this disease:

See you in East Lansing August 8!

Another wonderful stay up north off of M-22 in Onekama with the family. Golf (including the stunning Arcadia Bluffs), beach time, fishing, a classic beach baseball game, BBQs and drinks were had. Enjoy a few of the photos from the week up North:

 

A fine effort by the Okemos team this year didn’t translate, finishing another very mediocre 6 strokes under par in the 2009 Beebe Open in Haslett. It was the 20th anniversary of the massive scramble held at Meridian Sun golf course the last Saturday in June.

This year the core team of Kelley, Ron and Greg was joined by the skills of Robert ‘Beebe Bobby’ Pelon who contributed nicely by sinking two 30+ putts, one good for an eagle on #8, another for a birdie on the tricky par 3 11th.

Afterwards the scene was once again the Mayfair Bar and endless stacks of boxes provided by many folks but especially Woody and Earl, who shared some of their team’s second place and skin prize money. Enjoy a few photos from the big day:
