Blue Lake Pick-Up

We picked Alex up from Blue Lake today. He had such a great time and made so many new friends. We got to see his concert in the band shell which was impressive.

Traverse City

While Alex was at Blue Lake and Will was counseling at Wakeshma, Phil and I went to Traverse City for a few nights.  We stayed at the Grand Traverse Resort and had a great room on the 15th floor overlooking the bay.  We did a lot of walking, shopping, and went to some of our favorite restaurants.  We also went to Sutton’s Bay and Leland.  It was a great trip!

Blue Lake Drop Off

We dropped Alex off at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp for 12 days of music and fun.  He is on the main campus this year (grades 9-12) and is in a cabin with his friend Parker.  They are going to have a great time.

Alex’s First Time Behind the Wheel

Alex starts drivers training in October so we decided he should start practicing a little bit in the church parking lot near our house.   It was a good first outing!

 

Marching Band Fittings

Alex had marching band fittings tonight.  It was fun to see him in his uniform!  Band rehearsals start the first week of
August.
