Fun Weekend Away

Last weekend we had a mini vacation. It was my mom's birthday. We haven't been able to go away for awhile so we planned a quick getaway. We went up into Michigan to see a few lighthouses. We also heard about a Tulip festival they were having. We left Friday morning and stayed two nights. It was nice weather. A little chilly but it was still very nice. Here are some pictures.



This top picture is from South Haven Michigan. Mom has seen this one before but I hadn't so we stopped to find it real quick.



This one is in Holland Michigan. We had to walk a bit to see it. We also was able to go inside it which was neat. Mom hadn't seen this one before so I'm glad we found it.




These two pictures are from the Tulip festival. There were millions and millions of Tulips. We walked through this area for awhile. It was a craft and arts show. We all spent some money. I spent $15 on a penny. LOL I'll wait for that to sink in. LOL Seriously I did. Okay Okay I made you wonder why long enough. It was cut into a puzzle. Amazing. So I just had to buy it. He had a whole bunch of coins that he did amazing stuff too. I will have to try to get a picture of the stuff we bought. Of course in the bottom picture you can see Jeremiah found foam swords. I bought one too so we fought the rest of the way through the market. It was funny seeing the people laugh at us. It's lucky for Jeremiah I'm so immature haha.
