Our long overdue Vacation post

We spent the last week of June/beginning of July visiting family in Michigan. (It was a great escape from the Texas HEAT.) While we were in Michigan we took a trip up to Mackinac Island on Lake Huron. It was so nice to get away! And even though we like visiting everyone in Detroit, it felt like a REAL vacation. You have to take a ferry to the island because there are no cars permitted. Olivia wasn't too crazy about the boat ride. Once we got on the island she loved sampling all of the famous fudge. We stopped at about every Fudge Shop on the island. Since there are no cars on the island, everyone travels by bicycle, on foot, or by horse drawn carriage. Olivia loved seeing all of the horses. She also got to visit a Butterfly house while we were there and played at a few local parks. Here are a few pictures from our trip. I apologize if any of you have seen these. Luis always steals the good pics for his Facebook page:)
