We started celebrating the day, 8 days early with a date. We left Addy in the capable hands of Grandpa and Grandma Dodd, and they sent us to the Hello Tonight concert. It was so fun to see Chris Tomlin and TobyMac in concert together!! What an amazing night of worship. Thank you for this fun anniversary gift!
To celebrate the actual day, Kate made Andrew a fun picture card that recapped the last four years. Andrew gave Kate one rose for each of the years :) so beautiful! Andrew had planned a surprise outing for our family. We went to Paint a Pot, a little store in Holland where you can paint pottery. We decorated a plate, we look forward to picking it up in a week and using it for special occasions. Kate is already scheming about return visits to the store.
Then we drove over to Tunnel Park for an afternoon at Lake Michigan. It was super busy, since it was Friday afternoon on 4th of July weekend, but we had fun. It was a beautiful, hot day without a cloud in the sky. We took Addy in the lake for the first time, and she did not seem to mind it, probably because she was so hot from the sun.
After beach fun, we went to a new to us restaurant called Boatwerks in Holland, right on the water. The food was great (BBQ chicken pizza chicken and stuffed garlic cheese pepperoni bread). It was a beautiful setting, and even more beautiful family. Great day of celebration! Praising the Lord for 4 amazing years!
