Our Trip to Michigan

At the beginning of May we went to Michigan to see Tanner's parents. It was a long day of traveling there, and another long one traveling back! We drove to Phoenix the day before and stayed the night with my brother John's family. Then the next day we flew to Milwaukee, and then had to drive five hours (through a rainstorm) to Michigan's upper Peninsula, where they live. But we made it without too many problems. Tanner's parents both had the entire week off of work, so we got to spend lots of fun time with them. Sadie loved getting to know her Grandma and Grandpa Branham again, and followed them everywhere! We did a few touristy things, and saw lots of beautiful country! And we really enjoyed the cooler weather. Actually it was kind of weird - it was kind of cool here when we left, so it was warmer in Michigan than it was in Arizona. But by the time we left it had cooled off significantly and had actually snowed! But it was nice and we enjoyed it! Our trip was lots of fun and we are bummed that we won't get to see them again for a long time. Anyway, here are a few pictures of our trip! (some of these are courtesy of Grandpa Branham, thanks!)

I did it!

We went to Eagle River, WI to look around. It was cold
and we weren't very well prepared for it!

We found a neat little toy store. Sadie spent pretty much the entire time at
this little table where they had a bunch of wind up toys. She loved them!

And of course, we can't forget the snow! This is what
happened on our last day there!
