Summer in Leland


We packed up the car and Scott headed with the boys to Michigan
while Nana and I were leaving the next day together ( me in my mask for 8 hours)
This year is different for so many reasons we decided to 
use this time to come and enjoy extended time with family





Boat rides and beach days Lunch outside


This year was a year of many firsts,
First year paddling their on their own in Kayaks!

We celebrated Our June birthdays! Maeve turned 15 on 
the 15TH , The first time I met her she had just been born and it was my first trip
to Michigan with Scott we had just started dating. Beau's birthday is just 15 days later!






One special thing we were able to do this trip was make it back to 
pyramid point we had not been since Lucas was about one years old on my back!
