Our Summer Trip to the UP

Most know that our annual (or now every-other-year) trip to L'Anse, MI is over Thanksgiving. Well, since we're not heading up that way over Thanksgiving this year, and there was a family reunion planned, we decided to go this summer. We left around 8pm on Thursday night (Chicago time) and arrived at 4am on Friday (Michigan time). We had a great time. Friday we spent the day hanging out with the few relatives that were already there, playing in the creek (see next post), coloring, playing UNO, going for a walk, riding the Rhino, and enjoying a campfire (see post below). We also grilled out and enjoyed some frosty beverages.

On Saturday we headed to the beach for the family reunion (see post) for my Grandma Stiglich (Brunet)'s family. We had fun at the beach...girls enjoyed the water and the pinata the most. We headed back to my Aunt/Uncle's home to unwind and pack up. We left on Sunday after a yummy (famous) sweetroll at The Hilltop. We had a great pitstop at the Barth home (see post).

All in all, it was a great, but short, trip to the UP. Good times, good times. L'Anse--we'll see you in November 2010.
