4th of July 2008

Michlig Cabin, Fourth of July 2008

This Fourth of July we enjoyed at the Michlig Cabin. We finally bit the bullet and bought a travel trailer after two years of (me) wanting one!! It was our first outing with the camper and it went off without a "hitch"!! We were fortunate enough to have the cabin as a backup, as well as two seasoned campers (Jerry & Buck) closeby for any issues or problems (or questions, and there were plenty of those!). It was Cailey's first fireworks show as we have always stuck around the house in the past. She was terrified, but stuck it out and enjoyed the sights...the sounds, not so much! She insisted that I hold her ears the entire time. Next year should be better. Other than that, our vacation was spent around the fire and eating! Some went fishing, without success. The weather was absolutely beautiful the entire time with warm days and cool nights. We couldn't have asked for a better 4th!

Dan finally figured out the awning...

Not sure what was going on w/my hair...it was like that all weekend!! Oh well, we were camping, right!?

Anticipating the fireworks show...


Grandma and Aunt Connie







Little Morgan
Millie with a treat. The pups were amazing all weekend...they stuck around and never left our sight. They're going to be put to the test during our next excursion at a campground. Crossing our fingers!



Sitting around the fire...
Michlig Men...minus Dan
Caleb the littly pyro~he was obsessed with the fire all weekend.




Our little monsters...in a rare moment of peace. Caleb probably hit her with that car two seconds after I took this pic!
