Breakaway music festival

 B and I went to the Breakaway Music Festival. Fun to jump back and forth to two different stages. Each area had its own vibe. The day was perfect and sunny until it rained ! For an hour ! Agg, we tried to find shelter but ended up embracing it and hung out in the rain. Luckily it didn’t last two long and we were able to dry off before the sunset. I love EDM. :) 

This is how B felt :) it’s all about how you bring it! 

VIP section: better bathrooms and a bit closer to the stage. Still long lines and no rain shelters.

Grabbitz ! 

The crazy Ferris wheel ride. It was raining and we almost got stuck. Oh man I couldn’t get off this ride soon enough. This was B’s face ;) 

The line up. 

Okoboji

Pizza stop 

Sunset peaking through the clouds 

Iowa state parks : only $20 to stay and don’t need a reservation.

Cheese ! 

Fun hiking trails with lake and channel access. This area is so cool. Super nice giant chain lakes. They call it “the Hamptons” of the Midwest. Lots of big houses and boats to match. 

Great place to watch that boat traffic. 

Hike to little chapel in the woods 

My favorite spot. Watching the lake, sunshine and good company.

 This trip was just B and I.nice to have time just the two of us. Thanks Grandma Ann for keeping an eye on the boys while we are gone.

Door county

 The madian voyage for the RV- we went to Door County, Wis. We had so much fun. I love having time with everyone together! 

And we are off! Door county here we come!

Just chilling at the KOA

Trike rentals - they were hard to push. That peloton helps me out all the time! 

Cruising around the campsite 

Mini golf! 

Rainbows 

S’mores and fires 

The windy road to Washington island . The documentary stated that the guys who made the roads didn’t want anyone to be bored so he added a few curves. 

Ferry ride to the island !! So cool. First time on a ferry and with the RV

The crew 

Beaches : sand dune beach

This beach was full of crab claws?! Sea gulls or something else ? Not sure 

School house beach : flat stones not sand 

Look out tower 

Sydney joined us on our trip. She is super lovely and it was fun To have her with us.

Pizza stop… of course 

First time to see Lake Michigan! 

Sunsets !! 

This was a crazy cemetery where we got cheep wood for our fires 

Spent time at the Penninsula state park. Grilled brots and walked the beach

Ice cream for the win! 

Light houses !! 

Lunch spot 

This was another look out tower but had a walk way all the way to the top! 

More light houses : these were in Sturgeon Bay 

Love this walk way 

Boys doing dishes 

Axel and Sydney’s camp site. The KOA didn’t let us put a tent on our site so they got their own, just a few appts away. I’m sure they enjoyed the space. Even though they are getting more and more independent- they still want mom to bring coffee and muffins in the morning.

We had such a great first trip. I’m honored and blessed to share this human experience with my kids and the people they love. I’m here for it and can’t wait for the next trip! Door county we will be back. So much to see and never enough time!! 

Cheers to summer plans !!
