Hamlin Lake

For July 4th, and the week after, we joined Amanda’s family near Lake Michigan for a fun-filled family vacation.


Never having been to the Lake Michigan area, we were so surprised to find that Lake Michigan more closely resembles the ocean than any lake we’ve ever seen. It was beautiful! The water was so clear and the beaches were gorgeous. We enjoyed a lot of fun activities, including a great hike to a lighthouse:



LOTS of beach wiffle ball

Go, Claire!


The winners

The second place team!


A bike ride


Playing on the beach


Late night campfires, smores, and fireworks, the sand dunes at Silver Lake, and games galore.

It was a great trip and we had a great time with the extended Schmitt family!
