Michigan Memories

We had a great time with our family in Michigan this summer!

Papa Nick and Grandma's is always a lot of fun!

 We sure do love these two!

Molly's First Swim

Molly thinking about getting in ...

She caught on quick and loved the lake

And the sunbathing afteward!

Pontoon Party!



Papa Nick rented this awesome double decker pontoon with a water slide for the day!

The kids had a blast sliding down into the lake

There were all sorts of ways down



Uncle Scott's graceful attempt

We enjoyed floating around the lake

Swimming and entertaining each other

Papa Nick even went down the slide at the very end of the day - love the life preserver!

It was a great day!

Ladies Luncheon

We enjoyed an afternoon lunch - just the girls!

Claire and Emily trying to have their best manners - not sure they really passed but they look sweet here!

 Thanks Grandma for a special day!

Campfire Stories

We were thoroughly entertained by the cousins and their stories/skits

Then it was Papa Nick's turn to entertain the grandkids 

And to top off the evening - SMORES!
