A Trip to Manistee

In May, we made a trip to Manistee to visit Corey's family. Always good to catch up with them!

Visit to Manistee

We made a quick, one day trip to see Corey's mom's side of the family last Saturday. One of his aunts was visiting from Texas and we hadn't seen her in about 5 years.
We took a walk down memory lane with old photos. I love looking at photos and even Corey enjoyed it! We heard more stories of times gone by and just enjoyed hanging out with family we don't see often enough.

Visiting Family

A couple weekends ago, we made the trip over to Manistee to visit Corey's mom's side of the family. It's been at least four years since we've seen them and they of course hadn't seen our children. We had a lovely time and it was fun to listen as they shared memories!

A morning swim at the hotel pool
(we thought we'd stay in a hotel to be less trouble for his aunt and uncle,
but they were not happy with us and made sure we knew
we'd better stay with them next time!:))

Caedmon's a little fish and kept asking for "down"
in a pool way too deep for him! Maybe he'll be a swimmer!:)

Walking the pier in Manistee

Caedmon did NOT appreciate the lion or perhaps the heights!

Lunch on a deck by the river right before we left.
