Manic Michigan Moments




We're on our first "official" family vacation, and everything is going pretty darn perfectly. We went to Mackinac Island today and rented bikes and rode the 7-something miles around the island. We ate the famous fudge. We crossed the giant suspension bridge. We checked out the Grand Hotel where Superman and Dr. Quinn fell in love. We caroused around with (get ready...) Grams and Gramps, Abe, Jamie, Walker, Cora, Brett, Isaac, Amelia, Lauren, and Felicia. What I'm trying to say is, we had a really good time.

Saturday was Grandpa Rennie's memorial service and it was beautiful. What a blessing that almost all of the family was able to get together. Grandpa would have loved it. Mom wrote a beautiful poem that she shared and Abe gave the eulogy. Then we shared good Grandpa stories. It was nice.

I love your blog! It sounds like Michigan is a great place to vacation-and was that a bicycle built for two?!!! How fun! Enjoy yourselves-we miss you....
