so this past weekend we went camping at Campers Paradise in Grand Haven, we had lots of fun. We drove the strip Friday night then walked part of the boardwalk. Mike wanted to see where he had to go in the morning for his charter fishing trip. Saturday morning the alarm goes off at 4:45 so mike could get up and get ready to go fishing. He got up and then I was up b\c you can hear everything when your in a camper. He left at 5:20 and I went back to sleep. When Aj and I woke up we just hung out and got dressed around 11:30 mike called to tell us he was heading back to shore so we went and meet them up there and seen the fish they caught. Aj and Mike posed for a picture with the fish Mike caught, he caught the biggest out of the 5 guys(all from his work).
Later in the afternoon mikes friends andy and darren came with our seadoos and their girlfriends and kids. so then we went to the beach and hung out which was very relaxing. Mike needed something to do to entertain himself while andy and darren were on the seadoos so he made a sandcastle.
nice one huh? Then we headed back to our camper to hang out and cook up some food as we turned onto the drive to the campground aj and Kaitlyn spotted out this deer. so we stopped and watched it and we were talking and it didnt move or anything until they started yelling at it.
All in All we had a great time!

Good Bye Chevy Venture...Hello GMC Envoy!!
So here we go as you may all know the transmission in the van went and was not worth getting it fixed, they wanted more then the van was worth. We decided to stay away from the mini-van and look at SUV's. Dont get us wrong we loved our mini-van and we were planning on keeping it forever! We first drove a Trailblazer and it was ok. It drove a little harder then the envoy and didnt look as "pretty". We then drove an Envoy and loved it, but it was out of our price range and had leather which i didn't want. We found a few on Craigslist and drove those too. One was really nice but they had it priced a little higher, it looked exactly like ours now and ours was less $$$ and less miles. So Todd Wenzel in Hudsonville took our information and what we were looking for in a SUV and found one the same week at an auction. We drove it the next week, mike took it to work and looked it over up and down forward and backwards. We loved it!! So they took our van as a trade in and gave us the Envoy out the door at under our asking price! We love it and mike said he would even buy another one if he had too!!
