Happy Anniversary Michelle!

Today is our 5th Wedding Anniversary!  Hard to believe we have been married for five years.  Doesn't seem like it.  The years are passing way to fast.  Could not imagine being without Michelle and the boys.  It seems like we have been married our whole lives.  Everything that happened before them does not matter.  I thank God everyday for this incredible blessing!

Michelle had planned out a very nice Anniversary for us.  We left work early yesterday and headed for Lake Orion.  We stayed at the Palace Inn near the Palace of Auburn Hills.  Not the nicest place we have ever stayed, but it wasn't horrible.  Michelle had got me a gift certificate for 51 North Brewing.  We arrived there in the early evening and found a nice table.  The brewery was different than most we have been to.  It was not very busy and our waitress was very good.  We got our drink order in right away and then ordered appetizers.

Our drink samplers.

My Selections.

Beer Bites on Broadway appetizer. This was awesome.
 
My beautiful and incredible wife!  I love you!
 
We ordered our sandwiches, which came out quickly.  I had their version of a Cuban sandwich.  It was really good.  Michelle had a chicken sandwich that also tasted very good.  People came and went as we ate and enjoyed each others company.  We finished up and headed back to the hotel for the night.
 
We got up at a decent time on our anniversary and went down for breakfast.  We spent some more time in our room and then headed out for the day.  We went to On the Border for lunch and then headed into Great Lakes Crossing.  We walked around and did some shopping.
 
We spotted a giant giraffe.
 



We didn't realize JJ had a Driving School?
 
We went to the Theatre and saw God's Not Dead!  This was an awesome movie that I recommend to everyone!  This was made by Pure Flix.  We have watched several of their movies.  This one was the best yet!  I won't say anymore because I would not want to ruin it for you.  Please see it whether you believe or not.
 
After the movie we did a little more shopping and stopped for some ice cream.  I had Peanut Butter Brownie, Michelle had Peanut Butter Brownie and Birthday Cake.  Yum!
 
We headed for home and stopped in Clio to pick up Chinese food to take home so we did not have to cook.  We got home, ate and settled in for the night.  A nice relaxing end to a great day.
 
Thank you God for bringing Michelle and the boys into my life!  Thank you Michelle for being my wife, a wonderful mother and a great woman of God!  I Love You!

Summer Vacation Day 4: The ER

Day four started out with beautiful weather.  We had breakfast and Michelle took Brendan fishing.  I decided I would take a ride on the bike and do a little recon for a family bike ride. I set off east to ride toward Rapid River.  I rode around the the edge of the bay and took a few pictures. Dunes on the edge of Gladstone. This was around 4-5 miles out of town in a small subdivision. The photo above is of a small river I crossed, unfortunately I cannot remember the name.  I thought I found a bike trail that would be nice for all of us.  Unfortunately it was swampy and not kept up.  I headed back to Gladstone and met Michelle and Brendan out on the fishing dock. I sat with them for a while and Brendan caught this. This is a Gobi.  An invasive species of the Great Lakes. After a few minutes I started back to the house.  On the way I started to have some chest pain.  After showering it had not let up. ...

Summer Vacation: Day 8, Marquette

Day out started out cool, cloudy and windy.  It would stay like that the entire day.  After Michelle got up we took a little walk in the park by the bay.  It was very cool and returned to the house.  The plan for the day was to go to Marquette to visit Raymond and his family and have dinner with them. I received a text from Raymond that informed me the weather was not good there and it had not been for the entire week.  It had been very cold and windy.  He told me to bring warm clothes and we would probably be inside. We arrived at there location just after 3:00pm and it was cold and windy.  They told us it had been worse earlier in the day.  After talking for a while Angel started to make burgers and hot dogs on the grill.  We walked down to the beach with Raymond to discover that the beach was not really there.  The water has been so high this year and the waves were coming in so hard there was no beach.  They said they h...

Vacation 2016, Days 3 and 4

Day 3 was very uneventful.  We spent the entire day at the Resort.  Spent the first part of the day by the outdoor pool.  The second half was spent in the arcade (read that as kid Casino!).  We got to bed at a decent time so we could get on the road the next day. Day 4 was mostly travel.  We had a light breakfast in the room and then packed to head out.  We stopped at a rest area that had a scenic view. Very steep cliff down to the river bottom. We got back on the road and soon we were on the highway through Cleveland.  First time that I seen this. Heavy traffic through downtown and shortly after getting out of town we stopped and had a quick lunch at Burger King.  We got back on the road and Michelle took one of her famous vacation road trip maps. Everyone but me missed this! And this! We were soon into New York and stopped at a Travel Center to stretch our legs.  We then headed for downtown Buffalo and...
