Winter Break Day One (1)

So the kids started winter break today, Friday, February 15, 2013.  We got out of work early, got home and started packing.  We took the boys, our nephew Scottie and their friends Kayla and Tyler.  There were too many people to put in the van to take one vehicle so we took the truck too.  Everything was packed to capacity in both vehicles. 

We had decided last week to go to Outdoor Adventures in Standish. We got the largest modular they had which is like a house.  Everyone has their own bed and we actually have an extra.  There is not much going on at this camp ground this time of year.  Everyone is at the park in Davison. 

We went to the club house and their were a few people in the pool.  The game room is really out of date and we are not sure the games even work.  We will be visiting Standish tomorrow.

We (Michelle) blew a breaker cooking supper.  But we got the frige going again and the range worked so we survived and had great fajita's.  The guy at the gate was of great assistance and they will be in tomorrow to fix the power issue.

The events in the house were very exciting as we settled in for a movie.

So we are settled in for the night and we will see what tomorrow will bring.  The roads are a little icy up here and there is a lot of snow on the ground.  I hope to get a ride in tomorrow and we may do some bowling.  Until then good night!

Summer Vacation: Day 10, Heading Home.

Sunday would be a long day of travel as we would make the trek home in one day.  Still shorter than driving from Marquette. We had breakfast and started to pack up.  I had put the bikes on the van Saturday evening while the grill was heating up and loaded a few things up.  We managed to get on the around just a few minutes after 12:00pm.   Michelle would take the first leg of the drive at the wheel of the van and I would rest.  We made a stop at a rest area in Manistique and I took a few photos. A lighthouse for Michelle.  A mouse in a tuxedo! We got back on the road and stopped at another rest area.   Very cool! Brendan made a friend. The were not to bad. Our next stop would be St. Ignace.  We wanted to eat at Clyde's Drive In.  However, after arriving the place was packed.  So we went to B.C. Pizza again.  After lunch we made our way to Castle Rock as we were not able to climb it on o...

Brendan's Last Birthday Party

So today we had another party for Brendan's Birthday.  We also celebrated MacKenzie's birthday today (hers was yesterday).  We had Michelle's parents here also.  This was about the 6th birthday celebration for Brendan.  Michelle made some really cool cakes for the two of them.   Brendan's Turtle Cake     Mackenzie's Owl Cake   Everyone arrived and we had a great meal and watched the Michigan/Michigan State game.  Very close game with Michigan pulling out the win in the last seconds.  There was cake and ice cream and the traditional Happy Birthday song.
