Before we were ready to dive into a new school year, we decided we really needed a vacation! It had been awhile since our family had been away and we wanted to spend a week relaxing together. There's a place that's special to our family up in Michigan called Little Island Lake, so that's where we headed.
It's such a great spot - peace, quiet and still plenty to keep the kids occupied. Even the big kids...

It's become an annual tradition to have a family getaway before our new homeschool year officially starts - we like to take advantage of being able to travel while everyone else is in school! We basically had the lake to ourselves.
The weather was beautiful - warm enough during the days to hang out outdoors and cool enough in the evenings to warrant enjoying the fire pit.
