Father's Day 2015

We had a very nice Father's Day today.  I received some nice gifts from my family and we officially started our vacation.

We started the day with a nice breakfast prepared by Michelle.  Then we went to church and had a nice service.  There were several guests in attendance.  After church we went to Bagger Dave's, JJ' treat. After church we went home and took a short nap. 

After our nap we started packing for vacation.  We finally left the house somewhere around 7:30pm.
Upon arrival to Outdoor Adventure we discovered this.
 



The Fat Bike came off the bike rack on the back of the van.  It was pulled down the road a ways.  Tomorrow I will be making a trip back home to pick up parts and rebuild.  Fortunately it was not the Farley!
 
After unloading and getting things in the cabin we discovered that the futon in the cabin does not fold into a bed.  So we moved a bed from the loft to the first floor and set up a little bedroom.  I think this is going to work out.
 
The trip home can have some positives as we forgot a TV and DVD player for the kids.  It is a plus to get them settled in at night.
 
Michelle's parents will be coming down tomorrow also for dinner.  So we will be having a family celebration.
 
Things will get better!

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.
