Road trip to Michigan for Aunt Julie's Wedding!
What would a family road trip be without visiting a Presidential home? Here we are in Kinderhook, NY at Martin Van Buren's Home.
Martin Van Buren was the 8th President - The boys were looking all over for him
Chandler found Aunt Julie's Mickey Mouse slippers and wouldn't give them back
We finally made it to Traverse City - Here the boys sit with Granny on the porch of the family's old house
National Park Ranger Mikey starts climbing the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes with the happy couple
The new family poses for a pic at the top of one of the dunes
Goin' up hill
Daddy gets down to the boys level for some fun in the sand
Park Ranger Chandler
Mikey was stranded in the desert
Mikey sees the end in sight
Now we can start running down!
Then it became more fun to fall down every few feet
This is how Channy got all that sand in his diaper!
Running down the hill with Daddy, the boys just kept yelling "whoa, whoa, whoa"
This family clearly has spent some time at the Vineyard Vines store recently - very preppy
Mikey enjoys being at the end of the table
Walking through the vineyard while the sun sets over Old Mission Peninsula
Waiting at the mini train station downtown Traverse City, MI
Cool dudes
Leaving the station
They were a little nervous, so they held hands
Of course we had to go back for another ride later in the week
Choo-choo!
The boys took in some mini-putt putt golf at Pirate's Cove (Mikey in green)
On the 7th green in the cave with Daddy
We couldn't leave without getting some pirate hats and flags!
Arrrrrrggghhh!
Enjoying the view from the top of the Park Place Hotel during the wedding rehearsal dinner
Posing with the bride and groom
Getting ready for the big event with all the bridesmaids - Mikey isn't so sure about this whole thing
Julie's family gathers for a picture
Here come the ring bearers!
They needed a little help from Mommy
Daddy and Aunt Julie
Good job boys!
A rare moment of sitting still on the porch during the cocktail hour
Just thought we'd stick in another non-twin pic of Daddy singing during the ceremony!
Who knew this hole in the deck would be so helpful in entertaining the boys?
Great Aunt Carol took a turn watching Channy during the picture-taking
Jean-Luc even helped direct the scene
The boys start warming up the dance floor before the other guests arrive

The crowd finally joins the boys on the dance floor
Mikey sits down with Mommy for dinner
The wedding party joins the bride and groom during the first dance
Really getting into it
Having fun saying "cheers" to everyone
We stopped in Niagra Falls on the way back home
Channy and Mommy at the falls
Mikey must have enjoyed the trip - He surprised Daddy with a kiss before heading back home
