A wonderful weekend...

We had an amazing time on Mackinac Island. Jason and I really enjoyed our time together away from the girls. It is just nice to be able to get away and rejuvenate your marriage once in awhile. The girls did great with my parents and Kari. It was our first time leaving Addisyn overnight but she did super, as I expected. Kylynn got spoiled by grandma and grandpa, that's what grandparents are for.
Jason and I took off Saturday morning, had breakfast and shopped in Petosky on the way up. We were in our hotel room by 12:30 to check in and drop off our luggage. We then headed out for our bike ride around the island. It was a great day for being outside. After that we did some shopping and then we took a 2 hour nap. After that we went to an amazing dinner at Goodfellows, highly recommended, the potatoes were to die for. We then learned that there were going to be fireworks in St. Ignace so we biked about two miles around the island and sat on the beach to watch them. Very romantic, just the two of us. A little dark riding our bikes back but we managed not to ride through any horse droppings. Got up this morning, had breakfast, bought our fudge and headed back to Mackinaw. We did a little more shopping and had some lunch and then headed to get our girls. It was so good to see them but we did enjoy our time away.
