Michigan City 2105

Last week we spent the week at the beach with my parents, Abby and Alex and lots of cousins.  This is the 3rd time we have vacationed at Beachwalk in Michigan City, IN on Lake Michigan. (2010, 2012)  The weather could have been better, but that didn't stop our fun!  We had great beach weather the first 3 days and then it turned cooler and a little rainy.  I have a ton of pictures, so be prepared :)!

We took a walk down to the beach when we got there on Friday.  It is so beautiful!




The weather the next few days was perfect for some beach time.

We also spent a lot of time walking, riding bikes or scooters and taking golf cart drives around the resort.  And sometimes stopped at the playground for some fun!
This boy loves the monkey bars/rings

We were there over the 4th of July, so we had to do some festive activities :)!
Nora's ready!
She wasn't too sure about the sparklers at first
Micah was our firework specialist 
Watching in awe :)!
Love these 2 (and their sister in the background)
She figured out she could do it too.

One day we took the kids to the local zoo.  It's a small zoo and we had a great visit!
