I took Alex to do my own little photo shoot with him.  He did so good!  Such great smiles!!!

Mackinac Island

Over Labor Day Weekend, we stayed on Mackinac Island at a bed and breakfast.

Adoption Update

Just wanted to update on our 2nd adoption. We have been running into a lot more frustrations and hold ups with this adoption than we did with Alex. We have been on the waitlist since November and we were told in May it could be anyday. So...it could be anyday!

We know that it will happen at the right time but it is hard not to get impatient. Alex definately needs a brother. He tries to play hide and seek with our dog Blue and today he was following her around and barking. He wants someone his size to play with!

So...keep us in our prayers!!!

The post below this is new. It is from our vacation in June. I will try to post a "Summer in Review" post in the next week or two to catch up!

Camping - Port Cresent State Park and Wilderness State Park

Earlier in the summer (June) we took a week off to camp in our camper. We stayed in Port Cresent for 3 days (tip of the thumb) and in Mackinaw City for 4 days. We had a blast!

My favorite picture...wishes there weren't cars lined up behind us though!
