Bessert Family Photos

There are dozens of rolls of photos to be scanned and several gigabytes of digital images to be resized, cropped and otherwise Photoshopped into a presentable state that it'll be years before most of them will make it online. For now, please enjoy the scant few that are available:

  • Rachael Photos - many photos of Rachael can be found in her portion of the website.
  • Mackinac Bridge Labor Day 2008 - Linda & Chris' 17th consecutive trip, Rachael's third... and the first with good friends Andrea & Kyle.
  • Lake Michigan 2008 - another summer means more trips back to the Big Lake.
  • Mackinac Island 2008 - a short afternoon trip over to the Island on a trip up to the Straits of Mackinac to snag a cooler-ful of pasties.
  • Mother's Day Trip 2008 - photos from a weekend trip the three of us took to celebrate Mother's Day 2008 to Northern Michigan and the Mackinac Straits.
  • Nova Scotia 2007 - photos from the family vacation from the Mackinac Bridge Walk through Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick to Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island in 2007.
  • Mackinac Island 2007 - Chris & Linda's first weekend away from Rachael since she was born... but family friend "Aunt Heather" got to tag along!
  • Lake Michigan 2007 - on at least three occasions, Linda, Chris, Rachael and Heather spent lazy afternoons relaxing, swimming and sunning on Lake Michigan. Most of htese trips too us to the gorgeous Saugatuck Dunes State Park beach, while another trip involved P.J. Hoffmaaster State Park and Greening Lake. These are a few photos from those days.

Rachael, Linda and Chris Bessert, and Heather Winter
"The Family" — Rachael, Linda and Chris with "Aunt Heather" at Saugatuck Dunes State Park beach on August 11, 2007. One heck of a nice Saturday...

 

This is a little website set up by Chris & Linda, Rachael's proud new parents, in response to repeated requests for photographs and the latest information on how Rachael is doing. As many of you know, Chris & Linda welcomed their daughter into the world six weeks early in late June, so the birth and first few weeks of Rachael's life have been a bit less than "usual."
