My Vacation: Fireworks, friends, and Saugatuck, MI!

      We had a wonderful vacation and an amazing 4th of July, and right before we left we made a trip to see family in Saugatuck, Michigan! We've been making this trip every year for the past 8 years, and we have so many wonderful memories! We were able to go to all of our favorite places... Marro's restaurant, James Brandess Art Studio, Water Street Gallery, and Kilwins! Right before we left we were able to stop at the cutest studio called Fancy Nancy's. They had so many gorgeous art pieces, and the couple that owns the store is so sweet! I also found a beautiful dress and swimsuit at Chantal Fashion apparel.

Here is a little peek into our vacation!

                                        
                                          Some of the gorgeous fireworks on Sylvan Lake!




Yes, these are fireworks! I used a couple of tricks, and had a super low shutter speed on my camera.





My little brother, relaxing and loving his new sunglasses!


     Everything was so green! The corn was definitely not knee high by the 4th of July, but                                                                    everything else seemed to be growing just fine!


                        Antique keys we found in Saugatuck (you'll see them in some new pieces soon)

We had such a relaxing time away, and the cool weather was a great reprieve from hot North Carolina!
We love Saugatuck, and it's a great vacation spot!
