Michigan: Day 1 & 2

For our vacation this year we went back to Michigan to visit Dan's side of the family. We spent 10 days there and let me tell you it wasn't long enough. We had such a great time seeing and spending time with all the family we also go to see and do so much while we were there. As I have said before I am a picture taking freak so of course I will have a ton of pictures to share, so many that I am breaking the posts down day by day.

Our first day was mostly a travel day, a very long day travel day. We decided to take a shuttle down to the airport rather then drive and park, so we had to be at the shuttle by 4 am. Once we got to the airport we met up with Jordan, Lori & Alyssa, and Jim & Cyndy. The girls did so awesome on the flight, it was nice that there were so many of us that they got a little bit of different scenery by moving from person to person. We were also well stocked with treats, new toys and a DVD player with lots of movies. Once arriving in Detroit we had about a 2 hour drive to get to Aunt Carol & Uncle Dave's house in Williamston.

Day two was a relaxation day, we got a tour of the town and the farm. We did lots of ranger rides, played outside and caught fire flies.

This one is kinda blurry cuz we were trying to get the bugs to light up for the picture.
She loved her new dress from GG Dot, can't ya tell.
Actually she likes the word "CHEESE" when you say it she gets all smiley.
Uh-oh watch out for the teenagers!!

It was just so beautiful there, the weather, the scenery and most of all the company.
