I like Michigan.
There. I said it. My Ohio family is cringing this very moment. You see, being born and raised in Ohio - Buckeye style - no one, I mean no one (except a few crazies here and there, some of whom I am related to), claims to like Michigan. They stink. It stinks. Boo-hiss to the maize and blue. You get the idea. Of course, since my formative years, I've moved to the Hoosier state, gotten an advanced degree from Purdue, cheer for the black and gold on Saturdays, and well, have been generally ridiculued since. But that's for another time.
Back to Michigan.
It's nice up there. Seriously.
For the second summer in a row, we made a quick trip up north with the kiddies in tow. All for a little Lake Michigan beach time. South Haven style. And it has been much fun.

So, to borrow shamelessly from a well-known series of commercials, here's a quick run-down on our 3-day excursion.

Making lots of memories: Priceless!
Book to read on beach while hubby plays with kids: $11.20
Stale bread to feed the ducks: $0.59
New Wonder Pets video to help pass time on a rainy morning: $7.99
Making lots of memories: Priceless!

Beautiful! I remember enjoying the pictures from last years trip as well. Definitely looks like a place I would like to visit!
Some of those photos are so funny! Not sure if we're going to make it up to South Haven when we're in MI or not. We really enjoyed it last summer.
Well I can say boo hiss to the black and gold. The only time I root for them is when it comes to bowl games or NCAA basketball finals.
