Here are some of the highlights of our family during our vacation in Michigan.

Davis and Levi

Okay, the one below isn’t a group shot, but I cropped just Levi out from the group shot because I couldn’t believe how cute he looked in this one.  

Yes, this really was the best one of all three….

With Grandpa and Grandma

Cousins Davis, Stella, and Jordan
