a great summer weekend

SHOUT! a Fabulous Tribute to the Fab Four

at East Jordan Freedom Fest

Kevin and I started the weekend together in East Jordan, MI for his band's concert. The folks at East Jordan came out in droves to support and enjoy the incredible show that SHOUT! puts on. Directly following the concert was an awesome fireworks show! It is was really beautiful...it amazes me every year to see how they keep coming up with new fireworks! 

Sunday morning, Kevin and I drove around Petosky soaking up the view of Lake Michigan. If you have never visited Michigan, you must do so! The great lakes are awe-inspiring, the weather was in the 80s and the little towns in northwest Michigan are so quaint; full of gift shops, galleries, restaurants wineries, breweries, campgrounds, bed & breakfasts, beaches and parks. I am glad to have been born and raised in Michigan and hope some day to live "up north".

After our drive around Petosky we headed home to celebrate Father's Day at my folks house. I have an amazing Father and was so happy to spend time with him and the rest of my family. Mom made southern fried chicken (my Dad's favorite), mashed potatoes, gravy, steamed carrots, green bean casserole, salad and buscuits........topped off with chocolate cheesecake! Yummo!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO MY DAD AND KEVIN!

Kevin & his beautiful children, Briahnna, Kyle & Ryan
