My monkeys in St. Joseph, Michigan.

In June my family came with me to a destination photo-session in Saint Joseph, Michigan. What a beautiful place! Lake Michigan is really beautiful on the Wisconsin side, but get over to the Michigan side and it really shines. The beaches are amazing, as big and beautiful as a Bay Area California beach. The swimming is great, since the water is fresh and clean and, um, cold. We were walking on a city beach when I saw this big swing-set. I knew instantly I needed a photo of my four kiddos on it. This photo is going to be a wall mural in our new basement addition because it needs to be BIG BIG BIG! I promise to share a photo when we have it up and decorating our home.
