We'll Meet again!

Our trip to Michigan was a blast. We are so NOT ready to be back home and especially back to work. The kids miss all their cousins and eatting nothing but junk! We spent days relaxing, swimming, reading, fishing etc . There were so many kids to play with that the kids ran all day long until we forced them to bed. They were all helpful to watch and care for eachother. Nights were spent by the fire were we roasted marshmellows and hotdogs and did alot of singing. That was my favorite part of the trip, sitting by the fire with cousins Reenie and Jen playing the guitar and the whole family singing together....what a time.


Shantel was our little fisher girl! She enjoyed sitting on the docks (with cousin Ben) and dip the pole in the water. She caught her very first fish..it was a little things, but she was so excited and proud that she was like the big guys!

Here is me and Gar with White lake in the back ground...the view from the deck off the front of our cabin.
The kids playing in Lake Michigan. What a beautiful lake. As you can see in the background it is never ending. The water is clear and cold. The kids had the greatest time in the world running in the water and playing in the sand.
Yes! That is the world's Largest Weather Vane!

The family and the Great people (Of course too young to be Grandparents ;) ) who let 14 of us crazy Utahns into their home for a few days!


Gary went fishing one night with Uncle Brent, Ben, Brendon, Scott and Brandon with some locals they kooked up with and caught about 14 salmon..yumm. Gar was excited, he caught two of those bad boys himself.

It was the best trip!

Looks like a blast. I've never been out that way, it looks incredible. And I have always wondered what the largest weather vane looked like...

Sounds like an amazing time, I bet you were so sad to leave. Those are some big fish, my hubby would be so jealous!

You are so good about getting these pictures up quickly! I have my wallpaper set with the picture of Keegan pushing Stella in the stroller! It was a toss up between that and the one of Kallie hugging Ben. So cute!

Vacations are the most wonderful thing ever, don't you think?! Singing around the campfire sounds like the perfect entertainment. Next time I'm sneaking in your suitcase!
