SEPTEMBER 25, 2011
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
