Papa Cooks

When we went to Columbus a few weeks ago and Papa treated the boys to one of his special breakfasts. He made the boys waffles. He made the batter, filled the waffle iron and served up some tasty treats.





Thanks for the vittles Papa. Oh yeah, Baba served up some of her terrific lasagna the night we arrived. It was a good trip.

Just a few more Michigan highlights






Michigan Highlights





Keep Trying

We went down to the beach on our last evening in Michigan. Our goal was simple, a photograph of me and the boys. This is how it went. Actually, this is how it has been going with any photo we try and take.
Nice smile Owen.
Okay, haha could you guys please take just one good photo!

Ahhh, not again. Time to make a change in the pose.

We got rid of Owen. (We are standing on him).

Finally!




Michigan

For the past 9 years we have been spending time during the summer at Portage Point Inn. We stay in the charming inn and enjoy hours at the beach. Lake Michigan is beautiful, clean and cool. The weather could not have been better. The time we spend up there goes by so fast, our days look something like this: Wake up, eat breakfast in the dining room, gather up our stuff and head to the beach for the long haul, have a snack around 3:00 and head back to the beach until dinner. Our days do not vary very much but this year included kayaking, canoeing and peddle boating. The Inn

The boys
If you look really close you can see how I spent my hours on the beach
