Chan Family Picture

It was wonderful having Ryan's parents here to visit for a whole month. They were a huge help with the kids, I learned how to make more Chinese meals from Ryan's dad and we went on lots of fun little adventures including:

* Raspberry and Blackberry picking at Makielski's Berry Farm
* Domino's Petting Farm
* Ann Arbor's Farmer's Market
* Ann Arbor's Museum of Art
* The Hands On Museum
* Toledo Zoo
* Matthaei Botanical Gardens
* Ohio's Air and Space Museum
* and many others

It was great being able to get all the Chans together and get a family picture! With 3 photographers in the family, we were sure to get a good picture! :)

Lake House

We've been able to go to my sister's lake house two times this summer. Each time we go the kids have a blast and I enjoy eating tons of junk food! :)

This is the first year that Carson has enjoyed "swimming" all by himself with either floaties or a life jacket on. He is just like his dad and has no fear of the water. It was a lot of fun watching him jump into the channel time and time again. He loves the water!





Like Father...


Like Son...







Even Kadence seems to have a real love for the water!



Wow. I am way behind in blogging lately! I will try to catch up a bit.

Ryan's parents came to Chicago and Ann Arbor for 2 months this summer to visit. We decided it would be the perfect time to take a Chan Family Vacation so we headed to Now Jade in Riveria Maya, Mexico. There were 13 of us in total. The four of us, Alan's family, Ryan's mom and dad, and some friends with their 2 boys.

The plane ride to and from Mexico was a bit challenging with a one-year old, but once we got there everyone adjusted quickly and we had such a fun and relaxing time.

Here are some of my favorite photos from our trip...
