Happy 4th of July!

We hope that everyone had a great and safe holiday today! The weather was absolutely beautiful and we enjoyed ourselves with family today. We spent the afternoon at Great-Uncle Mark and Great-Aunt Julie's house on Indian Lake. Aunt Sarah and Uncle Cory were there along with Grandpa and Grandma Chenery, Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa Chenery, and Great-Uncle Bruce and Great-Aunt Joene. We had lunch and played. Then we took a boat ride around the lake in the pontoon. Matthew enjoyed this so much. He stood holding onto the railing just watching the water and the boats. We are going to try to get our boat out tomorrow and spend some time just the three of us.


After our afternoon on the lake and in the fresh air, Matthew took and nice and long early evening nap which worked out nicely because we wanted to see fireworks tonight. He woke up around 8:00 and had a small snack before we left for downtown Schoolcraft. Grandma and Grandpa Genisio and Gary and Blair joined us for fireworks. We weren't sure how Matthew would do with the loud noises and being up way past his bedtime, but once the fireworks started he was just memorized! He didn't take his eyes off the sky the entire show. Once we got home he fell right asleep. It was a very nice fireworks display and a great day spent with much of our family. Enjoy the new photos of Matthew!
