2016 Summer Adventure #2 - Grand Haven

This past weekend we spent in Grand Haven, MI. We had a little rustic cabin for the weekend that was perfect for our family of four. We got in Thursday night and settled in, and Friday morning we met up with the Raddatz Family at Michigan's Adventure Amusement and Water park. This was our second year going and we get there when it opens at 11 and we don't leave until 9 when they close. The kids are troopers and always have a blast.

This year was a bit warmer than it was last year, so we spent more time on the water rides and in the water park. What was neat was that each of the four kids were a different height - exactly 2 inches apart each. Alex was 42", Evan 44", Nathan 46" and Lauren 48". There were a few more rides that Alex was able to ride this year and he loved every one of them.

We rode the log ride as a family this year and let's just say the picture says it all. 


 

I also rode the 2 wooden coasters with Lauren and Derek - and probably won't ever again! LOL They are rough! But I am glad I rode them.

Evan's favorite ride was the helicopter ride and we all got to ride Grand Rapids as a group - which was one of my favorite moments of the day. I love this trip. 1. Because the park is perfect for our kids ages right now. 2. You get rides and a water park all in one. 3. We get to go with our best friends and make memories that will last a lifetime.














Rachel took this one, I have no idea what is going on but I love it!









Saturday we all spent the day at the campground. We grilled out, played putt putt (Alex took his first go-kart ride) and swam in the pools. Finally we ended the night by going downtown and watching the Musical Fountain. The weather was perfect and I didn't want the weekend to end. I am already looking forward to next year!
