Michigan - Favorite Moments

There were many memorable moments of our family vacation. There were, as always, some annoying and frustrating parts as well. For the most part though, everything was awesome. Since I am always real, and I always like to remember the good and bad I will share the best moments and the most annoying :)
Let's start with the annoying first:
*We had a minivan, which was amazing. We had room to spread out, there was a DVD player, we could take Mom and Brandon with us, and it was very comfortable. The negatives were the persistent fights over the pushing of the buttons for the automatic doors. Oh my goodness, every single time we got in the stupid van they were fighting about who got to close the door. Kacy also loved to bug Adilyn with the armrests. Kacy sat in the back seat and would constantly kick the armrests down.
*The big girls had to share a bed in the creek house, and the last two nights they fought for about 30 minutes before going to bed about them in their space or kicking them. Thank goodness they would finally pass out after a while!
Now the favorites:
Of course, the wedding reception and the dancing was a lot of fun for everyone! One of my favorite moments was when I was holding Brooke and dancing with her. She wanted to go right by the DJ because she loved the disco lights. I tried to leave, and she kept saying, "Right up front, Mama, I want to dance right up front!" All the girls danced the whole night! Another favorite moment was when all the cousins got together for a group picture. We are never all together, and it was a sweet moment.

Another favorite was playing volleyball on Frankfort Beach and jumping off the pier into Lake Michigan! We met up with the family on the beach, and we decided to play some volleyball. I didn't think we were going to play a real game, but we did. It was so much fun! We played three games, and unfortunately the Texas/New Hampshire team got beat by the Michigan people. So sad! Adilyn joined us for a couple games, and she didn't fantastic. I wasn't sure how she would do playing with all the adults, but she made me proud! Luckily, none of us out of shape old people got injured! After playing for about an hour, we were pretty hot, sweaty, and sandy. A lot of them were going to jump of the pier. I hadn't worn my bathing suit because I wanted to use that as an excuse to not have to get into the ice cold water of the lake. After the game, I regretted that decision because I was so hot! I decided to jump right in the lake with my clothes on anyway. Kacy even joined in on the jump. I was so amazed that she was brave enough to do it!
