Charlevoix with Chris, Liz, and Annie

We had an open weekend in July, and decided it would be fun to head up north, and since no one else would be up there, we invited Chris, Liz, and Annie to come :)

We followed each other on the drive up, and while Annie apparently was having fun listening to "Roar" in their vehicle, I was entertaining the two girls in the backseat. :)

The next morning I snuck off to Crossfit Charlevoix, and the ferry ride back to the cottage was so pretty :)

There was lots of beach time

And lots of swimming

 Taylor swam all the way out to the raft with me (with her puddle jumper), but she did so well!

We made a trip to Charlevoix, which included a walk down the pier to see the big lake

 (When did this kid start getting so big?!)

And a couple trips to Boyne City

After dinner Friday, we had to visit the balloon man that was out with all the fun for "Stroll the Streets"

 Silly little ladies :)

 This one can have quite the personality herself ;)

These three girls had fun riding all together in the backseat with Liz and I into town, while the boys were out golfing.

It's going to be fun to have these little girls grow up together!

(And a sign of a fun weekend is always sleeping kids on the ride home - rarely happens in our car :))
