Lake Michigan

We made another quick trip over to Lake Michigan before Labor Day weekend. It was a lot warmer this time around - but still a bit chilly in the water.

2014 Summer Vacation #2

Mark had research to do at the Library of Congress - this gave us a great opporunity to go to G'ma and G'pa E's as well as Washington D.C. This was Matthew's first time there - he enjoyed the Metro, the Air and Space Museum and the pool at our hotel!! On the way back from D.C. we stopped by Gettysburg for a few hours. We had fun climbing the rocks at Devil's Den. Uncle Brad took him shooting one afternoon. We found out that Matthew is a pretty good shot!

Lake Michigan

We had a great little trip to Lake Michigan! The water was way too cold to get in - but we had fun in the sand and throwing a football!!

Hot Air Jubilee

Matthew, our friend, Carole, and I went to the area's hot air balloon festival in the evening for the evening glow. It was a lot of fun! Some really beautiful balloons that we got to see. Sunday morning you could see some balloons from our house!
