Friday night was spent hanging out, playing games, having drinks. Saturday we went in to town (South Haven) and shopped a bit, browsed the farmer's market and had lunch. Then, Tim and his Dad took the girls back to the house and the ladies and my brother in law went for a wine tasting. It was delicious! I went home with a bottle of Sparkling Moscato, which according to the server, is the best for mimosas. Yes please! Overall the day was a little rainy, but made for a perfect rainbow.
Saturday night we had a gorgeous sunset. Just look at this!

Sunday was chilly, but sunny, so E took full advantage of playing in the sand. She was covered, and her clothes had to be shaken out, but it was worth it. She's such a water baby - just like me!
I took a lot of photos of our names drawn in the sand. I have some great ones that were snapped just before a wave came over them. I am planning on having the ones of the girls' names printed and framed for their bathroom. And maybe this one, framed in our room:
Overall, it was a great weekend. I ate way too much, drank a little too much, and had enough sweets to last a few months. Needless to say I sort of failed on my fitness goals, but today is a new week so I am starting over. Wish me luck!
I could absolutely get used to life in a beach house. Not only was the house gorgeous - it was just built this year - but I just felt so relaxed there. The sound of waves crashing while falling asleep is something I need in my life, every day. If you've seen me on Pinterest lately, you've seen that I've been pinning things to a "Lake House" board. I will have a lake house someday. Power of positive thinking, yes?!
Love those pictures!

ReplyDeleteLove that last pic! It would look great in a frame or as a canvas so I say do it!
ReplyDeleteI'm originally from Michigan, so this post pulls at my heartstrings and I'm feeling a little homesick now. I grew up spending my summers in a cottage on a small lake near Lake Michigan. We would go boating, have campfires, and climb the sand dunes - there's something so special about Michigan beaches. :)
ReplyDeleteThat sunset is the best! Glad you had a relaxing family weekend. And yay for scoring good wine!
ReplyDeleteOh gosh that rainbow! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are gorgeous! Looks so nice there. So maybe the fitness goals weren't met but the goal of having a great time and enjoying your time to the fullest sure was! That's what I call a success!
ReplyDeleteI will totes move to the beach with you. Just something about the water, and more importantly, the wind wafting off of it. /le sigh
