Chicago 

Last weekend we made a trip to Chicago. We got in late Friday night. But we spent all day Saturday at the More Arboretum with Katie. You were chasing trolls! The following is some pictures of the trolls that we found we did find all 6+ their height out! And boy did we get our steps in.

 It was a lot of fun. Sunday morning at a place called Woodbridge CafĂ©! Food was great. Can’t wait to come back in October!

Coast Guard festivals 

We went to Grand Rapids for the day wanting to spend time with Kim. Ended up in Grand Haven at the Coast Guard festival. It was fun we walked out to the light house and later went swimming! As usual Kristie got very sun burned! 


N is for New Beginnings Restaurant 

We were in Grand Rapids for the weekend and neither Kim nor David had been there since it’s right on Apline what a great place to start the day off at!

H is for The Hills City Grill

Wednesday morning David And I both had appointments at the doctors. David did his first and then we decided to go get breakfast since we had to wait until my appointment. Best opportunity to knock out another letter on our list.

Tool shed party

Every July usually the weekend after the fourth David and I go up to just north of Traverse City and do what is called the toolshed party. It’s a bunch of teachers and students from the north high school most of the teachers are now retired get together and do a potluck and sometimes they even camp out. The last three years David and I have camped out. It’s been exciting and fun and we get to see the sights of northern Michigan.

One of the things they do are some door prizes for tickets and this year they drew our number and David was able to pick one of the door prizes. It’s a glass sculpture thing it’s very pretty. Here are some of the pictures of the weekend.


Friday night we usually stop at moms and dads. David got a photo of mom in with out to much fuss!

V is for Vik’s 

We have our V!

One of the tough letters to get! Put we got it. How geocaching and thought we would check one of the letters off of our alphabet. Stopped in for a light dinner and that piece of carrot cake! The waitress even took the time to split our nachos to two containers for us!

Fox in the City

 David and I took a drive down by the lake shore tonight and yes that’s a fox between the road and the water! Don’t see that every day and St. Clair Shores.
