I know this is kind of a silly picture of Matthew but I just wanted to capture how green and pretty the grass is in MichiganThese are "lillies of the valley" they are beautiful, smell devine, and grow like weeds there...
Sterling, Matthew, and Nathan wrestling at Granpa Dills in Holt, Michigan....
Emmi and Matthew having the time of their lives
This is a cute little village near Traverse City that we shopped and walked around at...it was sooo much fun! Here is Granpa Dill with Nathan, Josh, Emmi, and Matthew....Look at those redheads.
The guys giving us girls a break and carrying the kiddos...this was nice.
This is a picture of the lake we hung out at near the village....the next few pics are of us at this same lake.

Nathan and Matthew bonding, Nathan was trying to teach him how to skip rocks.
Josh and Dina......they are so cute, I had other cute pictures of them, but no time to post.
Shawnee and James....awe they make a cute couple
After visiting the village we went to another part of Lake Michigan and this picture doesn't give it justice, but there was a very steep hill that decended all the way to the lake....James, Josh, and Christine went all the way to the bottom...so Shawnee and I decided to join them when they got to the bottom. 3/4ths of the way down Christine talked Shawnee and I out of going down the whole way and we were super glad we didn't go all the way, because the climb up was INSANE...but a great work out at the same time. I still feel the burn in my calves today.

This is the video where James, Josh, Dina, Nathan, and Christine jumped into the FREEZING, Lake Michigan! I also happened to get Christine losing her class ring in the lake (what I didn't capture is all of them staying in the lake for an additional ten minutes, looking for the ring).
