We decided to take the girls on a mini-vacation this year. Up to this point the longest amount of time Brookie had been in a car was an hour, which is what it takes to get to Grandma & Grandpa's house. So we thought we would keep the trip in state. Since neither Mom nor Dad had been up north to see the sand dunes off of Lake Michigan, we decided that would be a good place to go and would only take about 2 1/2 to 3 hours to get there. We had a pretty good time. The weather was nice and not too hot. The girls got to go swimming for the first time. Grandpa will have to tell us what kind of fish the guy below caught. That was the second one he pulled-in in less than an hour. On the way home, we decided to stop in and tour the Fair Oaks Dairy Farm since it was on the way.
