Day Before Vacation!!



Hi there!! Well it's been quite a while since I've posted here..Thought I would check in as we are leaving in the morning for Lakeshore Resorts...really a nice place but I don't really consider it a "resort"...more like a group of cottages. We are staying in a two story cottage with 3 bedrooms with our daughter Lori and her family.. Hubby got a new bright red Chevy truck a couple weeks ago so it is going to be nice to haul all our groceries, clothes etc..2 of our other children will also be there...all together we have 3 cottages reserved so it should be a fun week..nice and relaxing. Tonight our youngest son who is riding up with us, is here helping get everything packed and ready to roll in the morning..we are towing our son in law's jet ski so they are working on getting the hitch on etc. I just watered all the flowers, hanging baskets, deck boxes and some new bushes we just planted last week..my daughter in law is going to keep things watered while we are gone!! We have had a lot of rain lately but the hanging baskets still dry out really fast..
Well I think it's time for a shower and finish up whatever has to be done around the house before going to bed!! Have a wonderful weekend and will see you in a week or so!!

It's Friday!! And the 13th!!

It may be Friday the 13th but I am not superstitious so it's just another day...and it is nice that it's Friday!! We have been having some hot, muggy weather here, but I love it!! We also have had a couple damaging thunderstorms in the last week and right now we are having rain but doesn't look like any wind damage this time. Tomorrow is suppose to be cooler but no rain! We have a lot of exciting things coming up...our grandson Jeremy and his wife and baby are flying in from Florida on Sunday for a short visit..looking forward to spending a little time with them and then hubby and I are leaving on Tuesday for Mackinac Island with Lori (daughter) and Megan (granddaughter) for 4 days to see my granddaughter Alyssa who works on the Island for the summer..so that should be a fun trip!! We are staying 2 nights on the Island..it is such a peaceful place...Here is a link to one of the websites for Mackinac Island... Mackinac Island And here are a couple pictures taken last year when we were there on one of our mini trips!!



Hope you enjoy the pictures and the website.. Going to go and watch the Detroit Tigers baseball game..they are doing a bit better!! Have a wonderful weekend!!

Wow it's already June 5th!!

Well it's been a while...again...since I have been here and posted what is happening! Hubby and I just got back last night from 3 wonderful, relaxing days in Holmes County Ohio...Amish country. We spent 2 nights at a beautiful Log Cabin Suite out in the country..it was so quiet and peaceful and the cabin was beyond what you would expect when they say "log cabin"...we spent our day time hours wandering around the country side visiting the towns and shops and enjoying each other's company...evenings were so nice back at the cabin, we enjoyed the Lakeland revival on God TV channel, this healing revival has been going on for a couple months now. Spent time just doing nothing..so anyway that's what has been happening the last few days..here is a video that this amateur took of the cabin...
