Our summer 2009 trip to Douglas Lake was another great time. I've included some of the highlights below...
The week started off hanging out with Ullery cousins. L to R - Brandon, Ryan, Connor, Mia and Michaela.
4th of July tradition - stomping on "poppers"
Mom always loves lighting sparklers with the kids.
First bonfire of the season...
Quite a site when you're halfway across the lake and can see your "campfire".
Grandpa and Mia fishing
Mia had more fun picking out worms than fishing.
Always lots of great times just hanging out. Around the table, Aunt Kathy, Dad, Uncle Don, Mom and me.
View of the dock and Douglas Lake.
The kids have their chairs lined up and ready for fireworks. We can usually see different fireworks shows from the surrounding towns.
Ready to board the boat to Mackinac Island
We choose the top deck on the ride over. It wasn't the warmest ride note the long sleeves post July 4th.
The Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island
We have our bikes rented and we're ready to ride.
It's an 8 mile bike around the island.
The Mackinac Bridge in the background.
One of my favorite hobbies at Douglas Lake.
Mia caught this turtle.
Back to the lake.
We always need a picture with Ralphie the Bear.
