Clear Lake State Park, Michigan

Michael and Dylan went down to the dock to catch some fish while we were camping. Dylan actually caught a little, small mouth, he was awfully proud of it too. The days were so relaxing, our most stressful decision was what to grill for dinner.
Kenzie and Maddie are happy to be out of the vehicles as we arrived at Clear Lake. The dads were checking us in to our sight and we just got out to check everything out. It was about a 5 hour drive, and the kids did pretty well. We stopped for lunch and a potty break but other than that pushed it pretty hard.
Macy was climbing the fence down by the beach. She thinks she is pretty tough now, actually she is pretty tough. She was so funny, she kept singing and dancing, once everyone laughed she thought it was even more fun.
We took a rafting trip, but all of the pictures are on Tina's camera. It was pretty fun...... I am horrible at paddling. Michael tried to be patient but he had trouble not getting mad at me. Here are the kids before we left. They were excited, and they liked to trip alot. Maddie kept asking uncle Jason to help us the whole trip, I was getting annoyed that even a 5 year old knows how bad I was.
Here is the all of the kids. This was our last night. We were sad to leave Tina and Jason behind but we did not know how much fun we would have later on. On our final morning camping with them Maddie did not want to get up because she did not want to leave her cousins. It was funny since we see them a couple of times a week when we are home.
