We took our first family "vacation" to Michigan this past week. It was a good "test run" as I like to call it, full of big ups and downs. Eric and I learned within the first 30 minutes that what others say is true... Vacations with small children - are hardly "vacations" as most have come to know them. The most appropriate re-naming that I have heard for this sort of event is a "Relocation". There is little resting and it is about as far from relaxation as you can get. Basically you just pick up and move life - to another location. It's actually a whole lot more challenging than just staying at home - but the memories and experiences make it all worth it. All in all... we had a great time and can't wait to try it all over again next year - with life lessons engraved in our memory!!!

Good job Johnsons!! Looks like you made the best of it:)
Oh my goodness! I just love, love, love the picture of Ella with her tiny pigtails and ice cream cone mustache :)
I have to agree with Melissa...she looks a lot like you in some of the pictures, a little mischievousness in her eyes! Enjoy the rest of your summer, at home and I'll see YOU in September!!!
Any more RELOCATIONS planned outside visiting the parents? NICE photos... Kira wishes she got to pick fruits out in the midwest... did any make it home to your freezer???
