Lake Michigan

While we were in northern Indiana we had to go to Lake Michigan, of course. The water was a little too cold to swim in but that didn't stop us from having fun on the beach. We climbed up small sand dunes, and then ran down them! The boys looked for "cool" rocks and shells. The older ones liked getting their feet wet in the water, and they tried their hardest to convince me it wasn't "that cold." Everyone thought it was neat to see seagulls, the kids had never seen them before.

We also went out to a light house. It is not operational, but we walked out to get a closer look. I was more than a little nervous to walk out on the cat walk with the kids. I was worried that they would fall in, my husband thought my behavior was hilarious. Luckily enough no one fell into the lake and we all returned safe and sound. As we walked back to the beach the boys played in the sand and had a really great time!
