Michigan Trip

This is LONG overdue (as mentioned before) but here goes! At the beginning of July we took a family trip to MI to visit Mimi and Papa (David's parents), Great Grandma (David's Grandma), Aunt Gale and Uncle Bob (David's Aunt and Uncld) and David's cousin, Jennifer. David's other cousin Andy, and his wife Brynel flew in from CO as did Uncle Jay (Uncoo Jay as Emma calls him) and Uncle Michael. Emma loved meeting and visiting w/ everyone.

Over the 4th of July weekend we had some parties. We had Baggo tournaments, drank, ate, swam and relaxed. GOOD TIMES for sure. It might have been the best Dodge party ever. ;)



Here are some pics to recap the weekend:

David's dad FINALLY retired (ok, well at least partially) as did his Uncle, we got this VERY classy cake for them--it was delicious!

Bob (Uncle Bob the Builder as Emma so affectionately refers to him) and Dick aka Dumpy aka Papa waiting to dig into the cake.

Some of us were more excited than others for the cake...you know who you are girls!

Michael and Bry enjoying their delicious cocktails (thanks Jason!)


Let the pool frisbee game begin (yes Jason caught BOTH frisbees):

So did David...

I liked the cool backlighting in this pic...Bry joining in the frisbee fun


By the end of the night, we were all tuckered out, so we built a fire, roasted marshmallows and made s'mores and drank some beer.

GREAT times! Miss you Dodges! :)
