Our first B&B Experience!


Nathan had his first 'paid holiday' off on Labor Day, so we decided to take advantage of the 3-day weekend and get away! We went across the state to a fun beach town right on Lake Michigan called South Haven. It has beautiful white sandy beaches and fresh water, without all the seaweed and seashells, and sticky salt water!! :) Also since our 1 year anniversary is coming up at the end of the month, so we decided to splurge a little and stay at a Bed and Breakfast while we were there! 


 The first day we got there we checked into our B&B, went and hung out on the beach for a couple hours, then cleaned up and went out on the town for the night! We walked around the town and looked at all the little shops and went down around the boardwalk looking at all the different kind of boats, then ended our night eating dinner at this AMAZING italian restaurant called Maria's! The next day we just spent the whole day at the beach! Which was so fabulous! Just swimming in the lake, building sand castles and relaxing on the beach! By that evening we were pretty wiped out and pink from the sun, so we stayed in and cuddled and watched movies all night!! Our last day there we went north about 20 minutes to another beach town called Saugatuck. We heard it had some fun shops there, so we spent a couple hours walking around going in and out of shops and people watching (or in Nathan's case, car watching)! Then sadly the time came when we had to make the drive back home.

Nate & Kay = Love!

We had such a great time that weekend! The weather was perfect, not too hot, not too cold... sunny and beautiful! The soft sandy beaches were super clean and the water temperature was perfect, about 75 degrees. The B&B was perfect, such a nice place to stay, with amazing breakfasts' every morning, and yummy snacks throughout the day. The couple who runs it was so kind and generous, and the other two couples staying there were way fun to get to know! Nathan and I are converted to B&B's! You get the comforts of a home, and great cooking without having to clean up anything! haha!! But really, this trip was just so fabulous! We both loved being able to get away just us two, and have a fun and relaxing weekend! We will definitely be going back! :D
