Michigan...two

We were then headed up to Manistee for Christmas in July...really the highlight of it all! The one time of the year I have both brothers, their families and my mom and dad in arguably one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. We exchanged homemade gifts (both kids were a part of it for the first time!), played on the beach, took walks, entertained ourselves thoroughly in the rain, played games and spent much needed family time. One of my most favorite times of the year~

Thanks mom and dad for making the magic happen!

Michigan...one

We kicked off the our Michigan vacation with The fourth of July at the cottage with family. It was so fun to watch the cousins play, celebrate a birthday, and try our hand at water skiing/surfing.

So glad to have the time with everyone...thank you!

BIEBER!!!

The long awaited (tickets were given to Ryan for her birthday in March) Justin Bieber show was last night...and what a night it was. The boys went along with it but the real show was watching the pure joy and excitement on my daughter's face. It was full of LOUD screams, fireworks and a full light show. Ryan was over the moon...claiming it to be the best night ever.

The pure joy filled my heart to the top.

Love you my sweet girl!

Albuquerque

We headed down south to see the family. So fun to see all of the cousins play, enjoyed the hot days cooling off by the pool and of course eating Mexican food!

The kids are continuing their holiday and stayed with Nema for a few more days of fun...

Thank you for having us!

a little Michigan comes to us!

Having my (little) brother and family here was simply amazing! As Liz says...we ate well, played hard and slept little...and all worth it! Here are just a few highlights.
