Heading West (Photo overload)

Our last hurrah of the summer was a family road trip with the end goal being my cousin's wedding in Colorado. Along the way we stopped at the Badlands in South Dakota and Mount Rushmore. I took so many pictures but here are some of my favorites.

When we made it to Colorado, we were blessed to stair in a large house via air bnb with my parents, sister, brother-in-law and my grandparents. So many precious memories with all of us under one roof.

I was especially honored to be the photographer for my cousin's wedding. My sister was my right hand during the photo shoot, acting as my assistant, lining up everyone and keep me organized.

Fun family picture after the wedding.

Before we left Colorado, we spent time hiking and enjoying the mountains. (Then we went to my aunt's and my kids enjoyed some lego and nerf gun time).

Blessed by family time and precious memories on a summer vacation road trip from Life on the Gravelly Road.

Family Time Up North

We spent 6 days in the beautiful northern part of our state. We spent a few days camping at our favorite state park with my parents, hiking, exploring the falls and Lake Superior.

Then we pulled our camper to one of our favorite places-- Camp House -- the family camp we've been attending the last few years. Time in nature, playing at the lake, and campfire worship.
