Our second trip of the summer was to the Upper Pennisula of Michigan. We rented a cabin in Copper Harbor for a long weekend and took in the beautiful scenery and enjoyed time with the whole Mihelich Family.
We loved Brian and Bekki's cabin, right on the water!
Cheese!
Why can't I go on the dock?!
Buggy rides!
And special time Daddy Time!
Fun at Fort Wilkins
This isn't a see-saw?
You're it!
Can't catch me!
Fun feeding ducks
On top of the world with their Daddy
Reed refused to leave the car here
But we could barely get him back in the car here.
Reed loved the rocky beaches
And throwing rocks!
We had a great trip, lots of family time, ice cream runs, site seeing, etc. But what hit me most was the serenity standing there on the beach, with the cool breeze on my face, and the only sounds being the water lapping on the shore and the plunking noises of Reed's rocks. (The girls were sleeping in the car.) Life has been quite a blur with Bob's work overload and my summer with the 3 kids and no babysitting and a household to run. I think it's fair to say we've been stressed...we ARE stressed. It was nice to bask in a moment of stillness. And while we continue to feel somewhat overburdened with everything on our plates these days, we relish these moments. Our kids are amazing, funny, cute, and smart. Sometimes stepping away from the everyday craziness helps that become even clearer.
