2017 - Week 26

June 26.
Play date with Kerry, Austin and Kyle. Loved visiting their new house in the burbs...so much space to play!! Kiddos helped me make a spaghetti squash casserole - they loved peeling the "noodles" out of the squash.

June 27.
Early morning car watching in our pjs and drinking yogurt. My team headed to feed the ducks, but they were all napping, so Rad chased them until they woke up. We instead went on an adventure around the lake looking for bugs.

June 28.
Chaz woke us up early telling us we were headed out of town a day early...so we quickly packed - goggles, ear phones and all and headed for the airport. We experienced our first Coney Island chili dogs, squeezed all 4 of us into a seat and ventured through the airport with LOTS of luggage (and carseats). Brother couldn't hang with the day...he was exhausted by the time we arrived at the hotel.

June 29.
Morning trip to the Detroit zoo with the cousins. Brother loved the bears and sister loved the butterflies. What an awesome zoo!! Afternoon swimming at the hotel pool...they were so excited!!! That as until brother lost a battle with the pool deck.

June 30.
Took the kiddos to see Despicable Me 3, played at a giant mall playground that was entirely shaped like food items (absolutely love Ava's corn pose), played in Bass Pro shop and of course had to purchase the pop guns, then ate at Rainforest Cafe. It was a FULL day of FUN!

July 1.
Started the day off with family breakfast - got to see Chaz's grandparents for the first time in a while. Then we headed to the company holiday party at the lake. Kiddos enjoyed fishing, playing on the playground, digging in sand and yummy treats. Perfect weather for a great day with family and Chaz's company. Grateful for the trip to visit Michigan.

July 2.
Time to head home...airports are for playing on moving sidewalks, coloring, taking selfies and finaly napping on the shuttle bus. Then we got to celebrate Michael's 6th birthday!!!! How is he SIX already?? Birthday boy wanted Dinosaur BBQ and cupcakes. He got to play with his new sword and nerf machine gun and everyone was covered in blue icing! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
