Father's Day 2023

I didn't post on Mother's Day but had a nice time at the spa with my mom a few days before per usual and then it was all about soccer as Austen had two games on that day. He did manage to score 1 goal for me in one of those games so that was nice.

On Father's Day there never seems to be games so we headed up to Michigan like we have been the last several years to celebrate. We arrived Friday early evening and just did some errands (like the grocery store) before ordering pizza in and retiring early to bed. 

On Saturday, we ate a big breakfast and then Tom, Austen and Papa left to golf at a Jack Nicklaus golf course (Harbor Shores) that was quite challenging. They were amazed by the beauty of the course but it was a difficult one that swallowed up at least 30 golf balls between the three of them. 

It was a bit too cool for the beach that day so the girls and I took Sadie to the boutique dog store in town to buy her a toy and treats. Then we headed off to shop so the girls would have some clothes up there that actually fit. 

We met the guys at home later and then had an early dinner at another golf course (Clearbrook in Saugatuck) on their patio. The cool day turned into a warm night and we were able to comfortably enjoy a nice dinner together. We topped off the evening with some ice cream and a stroll down to the pier.

Sunday, Father's Day, was a bit warmer so after a big breakfast coupled with presents and cards, we headed to the beach for a few hours. The water was still cool so the only one who went in was Peyton but the sun was definitely warm and the water was like glass which made it a perfect day.

We capped off the weekend with dinner reservations at home later that night at our club since everyone had a full/early Monday and we needed to be back at a decent hour. We got in 48 hours in Michigan though! Our first family weekend of the summer!

Tom didn't send me any pictures he took on the golf course yet and we didn't take an official Father's Day photo but here Tom is taking his kids to a Blackhawks game (we only had 4 tickets so I kindly stayed home!).
