Friends in Ludington

At the beginning of Sept, we spent the weekend with a total of six adults and 5 kids who were three and under at the cottage! 

it was a great weekend! beautiful weather and lots of fun! :) 

We got up there on fri night and owen had to head right for the lake for some fishing…notice the life jacket underneath his coat and the crazy face he’s making?  such a goof!

the adults spent the evening saturday night hanging out by the campfire and watching some crazy people in a pontoon plow through the stumps not once but twice…we had some smores and discovered an awesome variation of making them with peanut butter cups opposed to hershey bars…mmm….

sunday morning Owen and Julia were partners in crime….julia grabbed the goldfish off the counter and hauled them into the living room, but couldn’t get them opened, so owen came to the rescue and opened the carton up…. IMG_8523

soon all the kids realized that a fishy free-for-all was going on and they all joined in!  IMG_8524
