Pow Wow WOW!

Went with some photography friends to the Pow Wow in Mt. Pleasant, MI last night. The costumes were wonderful and the beat of the music made me want to dance. Don't worry, I didn't. It would have scared everyone out of there! LOL.

I really wish I had captured more of the dancing but the crowds made it hard to see inside the circle.

I love the faces. They were very nice about posing.

Sunrise on Mackinac Island

These photos are from our trip this past weekend to Mackinac Island. Anyone who knows me well realizes that I'm not a morning person. I had to get up at 5am to bike over past Mission Point resort to take these pictures. It was so worth getting up for! Very peaceful and absolutely gorgeous!

South Bend, IN

This weekend, we made a trip to South Bend, IN to visit Jim's family. His sister Lori was visiting with her family from Tampa, FL. We spent most of the weekend with Lori's son Mike and his wife Sarah. This little beauty is my great niece Mackenzie. Isn't she beautiful? She is 8 months old and such a good baby.
