Touching Down

It is always difficult returning from vacation, especially when your vacation includes sunsets such as these...

Torch Lake
and long days spent lounging on the dock, getting up only to enjoy a leisurely sail on the Hobie Cat...
Torch Lake
and outdoor dining in the charming lakeside town of Traverse City...

and perhaps most importantly, living in your swimsuit when you are 6 months pregnant and prone to overheating...
6 months...and counting
Yup...I am already missing the cottage something terrible, and we just arrived home.

But somehow, coming home didn't really feel like "coming home," if you know what I mean! Does that make any sense at all?

Your vacation looks like it was just beautiful & relaxing! Thank you for sharing such lovely photos! Your bathing suit is adorable... I don't blame you for spending as much time as possible wearing it!

Ohhh, you managed to make me miss my Michigan even more! Sounds like you had a lovely vacation. Your pictures of the classic Lake Michigan sunsets are stunning, but the picture of pregnant you is even more beautiful!
