Trip to Michigan

We had the opportunity to head up to Michigan to sing for several events.

We love it when we get to take happy family walks along the way. 

It seems an otherwise dignified brother climbed a particularly brittle tree. :)

One of our favorite places is The Shack, which had some unique little people for our little people. :)

Dutch Blitz....that wild Amish game again!! Everyone yells numbers and fires cards across the table. Very Bowers. 

A dear widow prays for us daily and when we come to town, 
she also makes this beyond delicious coffee cake!

We had a wonderful time reading and resting.

Boys and water. They need each other?!

God is so good to let us sing together. He is also so faithful to give Daddy the right words for every audience.

Campbell power walking. Or bug hunting. Or taking soil samples. :)

Our favorite bodyguard. Looks like he needs protein. :)

Rip roaring game of Occupation. 

And OH! We love each other SO much more when we're eating banana splits. :)

Sugar and spice. Guess who's who. :)

Seems we took a lot of path pictures. We like paths. :)

Carolina's well stocked kitchen. Ha!

Lake Michigan! FREEZING, so we dashed, smiled at the phone and headed back down the road!

One of our favorite songs is "Like a River Glorious". 
The chorus says:
"Stayed upon Jehovah, Hearts are fully blessed.
 Finding, as He promised, Perfect peace and rest." 

Praise the Lord for this happy little landing spot and a wonderful weekend. :)
