Church Camp Kickoff

The day started out good with a good forecast and cooler temperatures.  The pop up was definitely done.  After inspection we found out it was just the top.  We made a trip to Menards and they replaced the top.  When we got back we put the top back on and finished set up.  The kids arrived and we enjoyed a great meal.
 
 

We had nacho and taco bar which is the tradition for the first night of camp.  After dinner the kids had some free time before devotion.
 
 
 
 After devotion we relaxed around the camp fire for a while and then it was time to turn in.  We have a big day ahead of us tomorrow starting with biscuits and gravy.
 
 
Todays Ride: I got out for a ride today and planned on doing 15 miles.  Well I was exploring some two track that I had not ben on before and got a little lost.  I ended up with 19.5 miles.  A very good ride.  Tomorrow JJ will join me.  I will take him on the 13 mile loop and increase a bit each day.

A lighthouse for Michelle.  A mouse in a tuxedo! We got back on the road and stopped at another rest area.   Very cool! Brendan made a friend. The were not to bad. Our next stop would be St. Ignace.  We wanted to eat at Clyde's Drive In.  However, after arriving the place was packed.  So we went to B.C. Pizza again.  After lunch we made our way to Castle Rock as we were not able to climb it on o...

Brendan's Last Birthday Party

So today we had another party for Brendan's Birthday.  We also celebrated MacKenzie's birthday today (hers was yesterday).  We had Michelle's parents here also.  This was about the 6th birthday celebration for Brendan.  Michelle made some really cool cakes for the two of them.   Brendan's Turtle Cake     Mackenzie's Owl Cake   Everyone arrived and we had a great meal and watched the Michigan/Michigan State game.  Very close game with Michigan pulling out the win in the last seconds.  There was cake and ice cream and the traditional Happy Birthday song.
