Labor Day Weekend with Evelyn and Owen

Well, time to tell everyone about our best vacation of the summer. Labor Day Weekend in Manistee! We went camping to our favorite spot in the woods, yet this time we went away with Andy's brother Dan and his wife Cat and their son Owen. It was such a wonderul time and we couldn't have asked for a better time or better company.

The weather was beautifully sunny and warm each day with pleasantly warm/cool nights. Perfect for playing during the day and sleeping at night. The water temperature was the best that Lake Michigan can offer. The water was actually what you would consider warm. Although the first touch was a little nippy, within seconds you were accustomed to the temperature and could actually swim!

Evelyn and Owen were as cute as can be. I think our vacation fun and the cute smiles of our kids is best achieved in picture layout, so here goes. We wouldn't trade our Labor Day Weekend with Evelyn and Owen for anything.

Mommy swinging Evelyn through the water. This is actually a bunch of still frames from a video that Andy took of us. The thing is...I don't know how to load videos yet, and am not sure I have the time right now to work on that. Maybe one winter day when I am bored I will try to figure it out!

Andy and Evelyn, Lake Michigan buddies!

Evelyn!

While we were there, we visited Evelyn and Owen's Great Grandmother Josephine and took a few snaphots.

Evelyn and a light stick. The light sticks were so much fun and I love the way my camera caught the light stick movement while in the "night snapshot" setting.

Look closely at Evelyn and Owen for the next two pictures. Although the light stick fun was the focus, while viewing the photos on the computer, I noticed something else just as cool. Evelyn and Owen's facial expressions, overall looks, profiles, etc...are very similar. Afterall their fathers are identical twins. Cutie Pie Wrights!
