Birthday Pizza

We celebrated Taylor’s birthday two days early since some of the family was going away on his birthday. The rest of us celebrated Taylor’s actual birthday last week with some pizza and a trip to Higgins Lake South State Park to watch the sunset.

Happy Birthday Taylor

Cider and Donuts

It’s been another fabulous October day. It’s warm and sunny again – in the high 70s. The kids and I went to a cider mill with some friends this morning for cider and fresh donuts. This afternoon I walked to the lake.

Hike

Kevin M., Kristi, Luke, Jacob, Zachary and I hiked the Mason Tract Pathway this morning. It’s been a beautiful, warm and sunny day.

Jacob’s Birthday

We celebrated Jacob’s 14th birthday yesterday. The birthday cake he chose was a barrel of m&m’s cake.

Trip to Grand Marais

Yesterday Luke and I went to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula to pick up Kevin M. He spent 9 days hiking 160 miles of the North Country Trail. It was a beautiful drive and we got to enjoy some amazing views of beautiful Lake Superior and we visited nearby Sable Falls. We even saw a rainbow on the drive home. It’s great to have Kevin back home and we enjoyed hearing all about his adventure.

Hike

Yesterday we went to St. Ignace to drop Kevin M. off for his ten day hike on the Hiawatha Shore to Shore trail.

Michigan’s Adventure

Yesterday we spent a fun filled day at Michigan’s Adventure.

Lake Michigan Trip

On Thursday we traveled to St. Ignace and enjoyed the beautiful northern shores of Lake Michigan. We had a picnic lunch and of course we stopped for some fudge while we were in the area.
