This past weekend we went to a lake in northern Michigan.  It was a very much needed trip.  We got to get away from the every day and completely relax.  Coffee on the dock, swimming, boating and only a slight sunburn!  The above image was taken at twilight, the clouds were still very bright while the color all around the lake faded, one of my favorite times of the day.

I also learned how to shoot a gun….while completely scary, it was also really exciting!  Below is a picture of the boys taking their turns shooting, I really like how you can see the smoke directly after it was fired.

We spent quite a bit of the weekend building fires and cooking on them.  It is so nice to do everything different than you have to day in and day out.  We got an amazing fire started right before a storm moved in over the lake.  The storm was so beautiful we didn’t mind the interruption of our fire.
