Lake Michigan

We had an amazing week at our favorite camping destination to date, PJ Hoffmaster State Park in Muskegon. Everything was just perfect this trip. The weather was awesome, not one drop of rain for five nights.....and we just enjoyed a lot of good family fun!

My sister took so many pictures that I thought it would be easier to just put them on my blog in collage form. Here are my brother and his boys. I'm so glad they could come with us....I know Owen and Wyatt loved hanging out with Nick and Nathan for the week.

Biking through the creek was a highlight of our week. The boys had a blast! And I love that Nick caught a dragon fly! Fun! He is such a nature lover!

Hanging out at the campsites. Doesn't get much better than this....not doing much of anything for five days straight = perfect!

We celebrated my mom's birthday while they came up for a short visit. We had a great time and thanks to Julie for bringing up all of the decorations and making a great cake! Yum!

Playing on the playground....another favorite destination for the boys this past week.

Me and my boys. It seems that Owen is only interested in taking pictures as long as he can be goofy....so we had to make the best of them!

Hanging out on the beach. Lake Michigan is beautiful and we had perfect weather for lazy beach days. We had so much fun and acted like kids ourselves. I love how much fun my family has together!

The boys all had fun too. We built sandcastles, moats, dams, played catch, and found creatures in the water and on the sand. Fun times!

Wyatt and Owen being buried in the sand. Wy was completely buried and he didn't mind at all!

Out and about, in Grand Haven and downtown Muskegon.

And lastly.....my dad taught Owen how to give a "wet willy" a few months back. So I'm pleased to say that Owen has now mastered giving wet willies in the appropriate time and place!!

It is so hard to come back to reality after a week away that was this much fun. I came home to five loads of laundry, unpacking for me and the boys, cleaning the camper,cleaning the house, having to mow the lawn and catching up on all kinds of work stuff. But it was totally worth it and we can't wait to do it all again....hopefully really soon!

Next up this week......potty training Wy-man!!! Wish us luck!
