Relishing Every Last Moment.

As summer slowly winds down we're trying to relish every moment and all of the fun activities. So Wednesday night Jackson stayed up later than usual and we all enjoyed two hours at the NEW Zoo. It's free from 6-8 PM and I can't resist FREE! We had a great time, despite me feeling a bit achy. Little did I know this was the start of the flu :(




Saturday marked the first day I felt like I was back with the living so we headed to Whitefish Dunes SP and enjoyed Lake Michigan for an afternoon. This Park has the most unbelievable geology and beautiful scenery. A favorite State Park of mine. 




Enjoying the beautiful evening with Mom.

Jackson and I ventured out onto the tidal flats. The water is crystal clear and right where we stopped the rock dropped off, similar to what the shoreline cliffs do that are out of the water. It was awesome to see!


Sunday was all about fishing. Jackson and Chris went fishing without me in the morning and then we all went as a family in the evening. Sunday may very well have been the most beautiful day of the summer.



Here are some random pictures of Jackson after he got a haircut this weekend (he looks so grown up!). After the hair cut, on our way to the car he asked to put his feet in the fountain. I said "Sure, why not." Well, his feet are in but...

So is the rest of him :) We had no extra clothes, no towels...no worries. He rode home buck naked.
