Jenna is 4!!!

My baby is 4!!!

Daddy brought her the usual birthday flowers and balloons to start her day!

Jenna had a very eventful birthday weekend. We took off the morning of her birthday and headed to Traverse City for 6 days of camping fun! Jenna really had several birthday parties. First we had her 'camping' party at the camp ground. Taco's for dinner followed by ice cream cake for dessert. Daddy ran to DQ after dinner because he couldn't let his baby girl have a birthday without a cake! Along with the O'Mara's at camp Granny and Papa came to join us in Traverse for Jenna's birthday.

Jenna also had a 'beach' party! Rachie made her a sand cake with four stick candles. Jenna loved every minute of this camping trip.

The next day we went to Torch Lake with Granny and Papa and we met Mimi and Papa there too. Such a beautiful lake. Our weather wasn't great so we packed up and headed up to Charlevoix to have lunch. We sat on the porch and watched the boats. Jenna also got Julie from Mimi. Jenna and Julie made a lot of friends at lunch that day.

The girls even enjoyed root beer floats for lunch.

The next day...  We made a point to visit some of the most beautiful beaches in Michigan this summer. One of our favorites is in Glen Haven. It is a beautiful beach and we had our own little secluded beach party for the afternoon. We were very lucky not to get hit by storms.

The kids had a blast too!

The nest day we carried out Jenna's birthday and took the kids to Pirates Cove for some fun. Poor Jenna was not tall enough to enjoy any of the fun. The older kids rode the go carts, zip line and navigated the rope course. Despite not being able to participate Jenna still enjoyed our time there. Here is a picture of the O'Mara/ Woolman clan. Please keep in mind that we have been camping for 4 days at this point... so I am definitely not looking my best.

Taylor did great on the rope course. Her only problem is that sometimes she couldn't get the safety line to turn the corners. Blake, Bryce and Taylor all did great and made it up all three stories!

On our last day we went up to Elk Rapids to another one of our favorite up north towns/ beaches. After spending the day on the beach the girls and I went for a walk.

It was a great weekend of camping fun! We can't wait to get back up north.
