Doolittle Family Vacation – Michigan

A couple weeks ago, we took a little vacation to the upper, northeast corner of Michigan.  We stayed in a cabin in the Northport area.  We met Mark’s family up there, including most of the cousins, which the kiddos were SUPER excited to see!  Here are some snapshots I took of our trip:


Our first excursion was to see the Grand Traverse Lighthouse.  I can successfully report that we all made it to the top!!

Next on the list was a little place they called “Fish Town”.  We looked in a few shops, had some ice cream and got THE BEST GIFT EVER…a caterpillar baseball bat for Easton.  He slept with it.

Our last excursion was one of my favorite little towns called Glen Arbor.  It had great artists, lots of tree, awesome cherry stores, rafting, mini-golf and much more!  While the kiddos took a canoe trip, Jennifer and I did a little shopping and relaxing around Glen Arbor.  Very neat little town!!

I took the kiddos on a Photo Safari, so everyone grabbed their parents phone and we set off on a mystical hike.  I wanted a group shot of my future photographers and here is how they posed:

Made it back to the Detroit Airport.  This is what my kids do.  The Southwest poles are a great obstacle course, just made for running.  Perfect for tiring them out (yeah right!).

These are great Keri! The calm/not calm cracked me up and I love the one of your boys on the dock.
