Diamond Lake

At the end of July, we made what has become our annual visit back east to see Josh's Nanny and aunts, uncles and cousins. Even though they all live in South Bend, Ind., we spent most of our time at Nanny's lake cottage in Michigan. This year we were there for 8 days and had so much fun swimming, eating, fishing, eating, taking boat rides, eating, jet skiing and eating some more. I have more than 120 pictures from the trip so I'll just stop writing now and let the pictures speak for themselves.

Josh was the lucky one on the airplane sitting next to 3 out of the 5 kids

Owen loved carrying his own backpack

Finally there - Lark, Owen and Aven having a treat

Colton loved splashing around in the lake

So cute

These two were such good buds the whole trip

We had so much fun as always and can't wait to go back next June for Jess and Corey's wedding!
