Elijah's turn

Hanna loves to chase Elijah and put him in the lion suit. He's pretty cute!

Great Grandma Nancy and the kids. The girls spent countless hours with Great Grandma before we moved and were so happy to spend time with her, shopping, playing and having fun like old times. Elijah even got in on it one night. Grandma watched him while I went to the doctor and he emptied all the cupboards and strung stuff from one end of the house to the other, just like I used to do and the girls too.

Play with me cat. This is my mom's cat, Bud. He is huge and not always friendly with people he doesn't know

Goodbye Kim

Time came to leave Kalamazoo for Waterford. I was so glad to have been there for Kim's wedding and to spend the day with her.

Swimming in Michigan

Grandma Connie and Ashley swimming at the clubhouse. Josh called and got them a pass to swim because the pool at the hotel wasn't heated and the girls tried to swim in it anyway. They had purple legs when they got out!! Thanks Josh for a nice 81 degree pool to play in!


No swimming for Elijah, just fun with Aunt Kim

What fun, we carved pumpkins, went to the cider mill, walked to the park, made cookies and enjoyed being back home.

Marcia and the girls
Ashley and Hanna got to go in the
cockpit and meet the pilot on the way there.
They also got a first class breakfast and their names announced on the speaker by the pilot and flight attendants.
