And I thought last summer was busy...

Nothing could compare with how busy we have been this summer.  I can't believe it is already the 8th of August.

And we are not slowing down yet.

Russ and I took our anniversary trip to Mackinaw City, MI.  5 days just the two of us and no kids.  It was awesome.

We used my parents travel trailer to help cut down on hotel/restaurant expenses.

We took Shepler's Ferry to Mackinac Island.

We had our bikes with us and were able to go on a lot of adventures.

And we had a lovely lunch at The Tea Room at the Fort.

We spent some time exploring Historic Mill Creek.

And found a new lighthouse we had never been to before!

It was a great time to just be together.

Probably the best thing that happened this summer was my brother got married!  He and Joanna got married standing IN Lake Michigan.  It was a glorious day.

More updates on our summer to come.  And also, a plan of attack on the upcoming school year.  Stay tuned!
