Week of Vacation

What a wonderful week of vacation we had!  Friday, the girls and I headed up north and picked up K&K on the way.  So we all trekked the 4 hours up there.  But was so great having K&K in the car to help out.  We only stopped once for lunch.  Then surprised Grandma because she didn't know K&K were coming.

Then much fun was had all week.

Craft Show in Manistee - an annual tradition mom and I started about 3 years ago (I think)

Followed by the Carnival in Manistee - also an annual tradition

Lots of fun at camp all week

Trips to the beach

Even some swimming - lots by Karle, some by Mary and Kahle and even a little by Lola and me

Sparklers and 4th of July Fun

Lots of bike rides and scootering

Fishing for the guys and K&K

Having the whole gang together - lots of laughs

Trips to Frankfort for perch and shopping

First full week at the Ark for Greta

Meeting new friends - love that one lives like 10 minutes from us!  And Greta and the little girl got along great.

A senior picture session with Emma - so fun!

Beautiful sunsets.

Sleeping in late

Friday morning - a week later - we packed up and headed home.  The girls were troopers and we only stopped to fill up with gas and then made it the rest of the way and they never got out or complained!

Such a great time and lots of great memories!
