Lake Michigan!
Our kids have never been to the ocean or any beach so to say they were excited is a major understatement. It was real spur of the moment, we headed up to St. Joseph, Michigan with some friends. St. Joe is an awesome town and the beach was beautiful!
The only downer was the weather. We brought a rainy day with us. Right as we pulled up the storm was rollin in, the wind off the lake was CrAzY! But amazingly the water was very warm, so we still had a blast. It started raining pretty good so we had to head out, but now we know where to go for great fun! Thanks Helm Family!
BAILEY
When we saw the weather, we thought we would just go get our feet in. Matt and I didn't even get our swim suits on. Once Bailey felt the water with her feet....she just had to dive in!
ELLERY
She just wanted to look for seashells, but once she saw how much
fun Bay was having, she dove right in too!
GUS
He wanted to get in so badly!
CY
First of all, Cy is kind of OCD and MUST wear socks at
almost all times. Yes, that means even with sandals!
He would NOT take them off. He was a
little leary of the water, but once he got in
he LOVED it! (socks on the whole time!)
TAITE
Now poor Taite was another story. Totally uneasy with the waves.
She didn't want to get in, I even told her Oma loves the beach.
It didn't work.
I thought if I just got her in, she would like it.
Not so much! As soon as she could get out of my grip, she was out of there!
What a GrEaT DaY!

Was the water warm? Really? I just don't really associate Lake Michigan with warm water...
Looks like fun though!
That looks like so much fun, and like a real beach.
As long as the water is warm - that's all that matters! I giggle at the comments of each of your kids - it's funny so see how each of their personalities come out! Cute pics! Oh btw, I'm sure you received it, but I did send you an email about the gun we bought Ashlin...good luck!
Looks like a great time!
