4th of July fun in Michigan

The first thing we have to do when we get to Michigan is to hop onto the go cart!!!

This year we had several "friendly" games of 4 square.

While the girls rode the go cart Tyler and Kathryn followed on the bikes.

Another activity we do every year is go to the Detroit Zoo and have our picture taken in this exact spot.
