Visting Friends and Ice Cream

We were honored by visits from Joy's friends, Nicki and Mary.  Nicki drove up on our rainiest day of our stay, but we had a great time playing games, climbing the sand dune, and telling stories.  Later in the week, Mary and 3 of her kids, along with Brennan's friend (Zach), came up for the day and we went to House of Flavors (for the second time that week) and played a long game of whiffleball which ended in a high scoring tie in the eleventh inning.  Then we threw kids into Lake Michigan and made sure everyone enjoyed getting wet on our brightest and sunniest day of the week.
Nicki liked the idea of a silly picture with our family of 5.



Not sure this booth was built for 13 people, but we fit!
Joy and Mary with two of her girls and one on the way.  The front row included the whiffleball players.


We polished off an 9 scoop Pig trough at House of Flavors with just the five in our family...no problem.
