Up North!

The last weekend in September, we got to take a little vacation to Northern Michigan!  We got together with 5 other families of whom we are VERY good friends with.  The Larrabees (who live in Az), the Hansons (who live in Green Bay, WI), the Dutys, the Crabtrees, and the Munks (who all live in MI.)  We rented a HUGE house and headed up for the weekend with our kids.  Now here is the best part... we had 12 adults and 12 children.  All the children were UNDER THE AGE OF 4.  Are we crazy?  Probably.  But we had a blast and so did the kids :)  We all agreed to do it again soon!

 The guys: Dan Crabtree, Ben Larrabee, Mark Hanson, Charlie Munk, Tom Duty and Ross

 Our family riding on a gold cart (well at least we tried.  Our kids decided it wasn't for them so we headed back inside...)

 The girls... me (and Sam), Carly Larrabee, Kelly Duty, Jen Crabtree, Sarah Munk, and Marisa Hanson..

 The whole crew... Ross and I are in the middle :)

 We stopped at a pumpkin patch the second day we were there and the kids loved it.  Katelyn adored hanging out with Mark and Marisa's oldest, Evelyn, and the two of them were quite the artists at the pumpkin decorating station!

All the babies in the bunch (there were 7 toddlers and 5 babies.)  Me (and Sam), Jen (and Mila-one of her twins), Kelly (holding Brynn-Jen's other twin), Carly (and Farrah), and Sarah (and Carson.)

Whew-what a weekend!
