Family Reunion at Lake Michigan

We have been really lucky this summer to have had a few weekend get-aways to get us out of the heat and in a new scenery. We were very lucky to be able to visit the Sloan Family back in Chicago. We toured the city for a day but spent most of our time at a beautiful B&B on Lake Michigan. I must say it is one of the prettiest places I have ever been. We had a crazy time playing at the beach (which included water balloon volleyball), playing bunko, singing bunko blues following the bunko game, night swimming in the lake and of course Chad's favorite late night poker tournaments. Our children were in heaven running around with a million little cousins and getting filthy dirty with sand! Thanks to Uncle Phil and Jacque (mom) for keeping our family tied together. We love seeing you guys.



Favorite Uncle Mark always up for entertaining the kids!




Visiting the Aquarium...looking at sea turtle.

Our cute Bed & Breakfast...I think the only way to travel.

4th of July!!

We Spent the 4th of July weekend up in Park City! So fun to get away and out of the hot weather. We lounged at the pool (Poor Cohen fell into the hot tub), went to the local parade, hit the alpine slides and watched a great fire work show.

Poor Cohen had to wear Halle's hat because mommy forgot his.

Girls Trip!!!

I had my first officially "get-a-way" since Cohen has been born. A buch of girls from my neighborhood went to St. George for the weekend. It was so fun to just play and have zero responsibility. Our trip entailed of sun bathing, shopping, eating and gabbing, which I would say are my #1 hobbies. Thanks to Misty for planning a fantastic weekend!
