Mackinac Island Adventure

At the end of August we made the trek up to Northern Michigan to attend Jason and Sara's wedding on Mackinac Island.  To get there, it took, two flights, a 90 minute car ride and a ferry ride!  Mix in a 14 month old and you get a wild weekend!    Grayson actually did awesome.  She was such a trooper, even staying with a babysitter (don't worry, it was a family member of the bride's sister) for the reception.   I had never been to Mackinac before and was so happy when I learned the wedding was there so we had an excuse to visit.   Here are some pics of the trip and wedding.  Congrats to Jason and Sara, glad we could be part of your special weekend!

13 months!

I swear 13 months was upon me before I could even finish all of her 1 year posts!   If time is just going to keep going by faster and faster, we are in trouble!   I was kind of planning on stopping my monthly pics when the belly stickers ran out at 12 months, but one of my co-workers insisted that I keep taking pictures every month (I post all of them in my cubicle at work!).   I have a feeling we are going to get alot more candid going forward.  

Elk Lake 2012

In July, Grayson's school was closed for 11 days so we trekked up to Michigan (two flights!) to spend the time with Grandma, Pops and Aunt Krsiten at their beautiful new home on Elk Lake. We had a great visit - Grayson loved all of the water activities and sleeping in the "barn" (Grandma and Pops special room with the barn style door!    We got so many great pictures, here are some of the highlights!
