Smith Family Summer Fun!

Katelyn made a smooth transition from crib to toddler bed this summer (the crib is now freed up for Baby Boy Smith!)   Two musts....LOTS of stuffed animals and blankets.
Since Katelyn was little-little she's LOVED sleeping with stuffed animals on her head (this use to make me nervous, but now it's just humorous!).  When I see her doing this, I think of my friend Bradi, who loves to sleep the same way :)-----girl weekends reveal all kinds of secrets :)
Katelyn with her sunglasses and a book!  Some of her favorite things in the world :)
Whitecaps Game with our Small Group-----Katelyn with "Auntie Jenny"
One of our favorite garage-sale finds this summer!  Katelyn LOVES her kitchen!
Our kiddie pool with our slide (which was one of Mom Smith's best garage-sale finds for us this summer!!!!!!)

Smith Family Camp Trip in the UP! (Indian Lake State Park/Hiking at Pictured Rocks---40 min. from our campground)

                One amazing view we saw on our days hike at Pictured Rocks
          After 3 hours of hiking, we made it to Lake Superior!  What a sight!
