The Michigan trip...

As soon as I got off of work last Sunday morning, Brad Maddie and I headed up to Holland Michigan to enjoy the beach there and just have some family fun together. The first thing we did was a canoe trip that lasted 3 hours. We thought it would be 3 hours of sometimes drifting- sometimes paddling...nope...it was pretty much paddling the whole time. Whenever Brad would complain about something, I just kept reminding him that I had been up since 5PM the previous day. He just loved that. ;) We saw a duck family, an eagle, lots of turtles and I mistook a log for an alligator...seriously. We don't have any pics cause Brad left the camera in the car.
We went the next day to the beach in Holland. It was beautiful and puts Indiana beaches to shame. There's a red lighthouse there and a pavilion that has 24 flavors of soft serve ice cream...it was awesome!




This is Maddie's "LT. Dan" picture- from the moviie Forest Gump.


Maddie decided to strike a pose at the beach in South Haven.


South Haven has a specialty dog store so we picked Willow up some treats.

I really liked Michigan and it's beaches and can't wait to go back.
