Crystal Lake

We have been gone for a few weeks so it might take me a couple of posts to catch up, so get excited!! We were able to spend a week with some of Brent's family in upstate Michigan. My mother-in-law has been going to this same spot with her family since she was 14 and it's been a very fun tradition.

This year, the weather didn't cooperate with us, but the kids didn't seem to mind too much! We still managed to have a fantastic time!
The kids are lucky to have an uncle Ben who isn't afraid to get his hands dirty and help make a sandcastle!

The water was so cold so we had to find activities that we could do on the water, without having to get in the water! Rowboats were the answer!

It's tradition to go to the pier at Lake Michigan every year. Here are Brent and the kids sitting on one of the swings. It was fun to spend time with family and the kids loved having their cousins around.

There you are! I was just thinking a couple days ago, "Paige hasn't blogged in forever!" I figured you must have been having fun somewhere! Glad you had a great time. And I know I can only see it from behind, but I just love Avery's little swimsuit!
