Lulu Letty: April 2010

Charlevoix, MI

>> Friday, April 30, 2010

A lovely day spent in the town just north of my parents' cottage- Charlevoix, MI.

I know I am terribly behind on blog comments, I'm hoping to catch up today and tomorrow.

XOXO

Cole and I found a nature preserve that I haven't been to in years. I totally forgot that it existed. It's quite beautiful and has a little beach off of Lake Michigan. It would have been even more lovely, if it wasn't for the crazy bugs buzzing us. Oh, well. It was still wonderful.

Photo Credits: Cole. Thanks, darling!

Cole, Wellie, Pip and I drove up to my parents' cottage tonight. And guess what...Cole finished his first year of business school at UMich! YAY! He did so well, I'm so proud of him. He definitely deserves a break.

I'm so glad you all liked the swan gif. Can you believe that Cole was able to capture that.

XOXO

Flight of the Swan

>> Monday, April 26, 2010

Even though it was incredibly windy, Cole and I couldn't resist the sunshine, so we went for a bike ride. Let me just say that I am completely out of shape. I do not recall riding a bike being so completely exhausting. My legs were screaming by the second block! Luckily we stopped for a little rest on the golf course (closed on Mondays), sat beneath some willows and enjoyed watching a massive swan take flight.
