These posts are terribly out of order, but that's what happens when you're trying to catch up on a month's worth of posts at the same time that your sister-in-law is giving birth to the next Nelson! So, have fun jumping between stories! We again spent our Labor Day holiday in Mackinaw and walked the big bridge. My friend Jenny Mankel (Myers) from high school joined us with her four children Keenen (I can't spell it right), Kortney, Kyleigh and Kameron. We had a great weekend eating out, playing in the water and on the boat, picnicing in the tree fort (this was the kids) and walking the bridge. All 6 kids (mine included) walked the 5 mile bridge along with Jenny and I!
For a couple of minutes, Tay found another 7th grader from Shepherd Middle School, and they walked side-by-side comparing their upcoming class schedules for the 1st day of school (the next day).

Please look carefully at Kyleigh's arm (she's the one holding hands with Tay). This is my kind of girl! She carried her purse with her everywhere, including on this 5 mile hike.
Poor Jenny gets the most credit for the walk. She had one kid or another on her shoulders for more than 1/2 of the way. I guess all of that firefighter training is starting to pay off.
We all made it safe and sound to the finish line!
