Grandma and Aunt Caroline

Anytime Caroline and Grandma come back to Michigan we go to Hudsons ( now Macy's ) for a Maurice salad. It's tradition!!

Going to LA

I am getting ready for my trip to LA going to stay at Caroline's and Brian and his girlfriend Anne are coming down. I am thrilled to be spending time with my family. The last time I was in LA was right after I graduated nursing school. David and Brian were five and three respectively so I'm looking forward to viewing the changes. Caroline and I are on our own Thur and Fri until the kids get in Fri night. I'm bringing the euchre cards!!!

Playing Risk

Frank brought a risk game but it was a Lord of the Rings risk game with middle earth as the battlefield and the orks against the elves and riders of rohan etc. Growing up we spent many a Sunday afternoon playing risk. This was a really cool game and Frank and Gpa battled it out until the bitter end. Frank defeated Gpa's evil orks.

Ancient Ones Visit

Gpa and G ma came up for their annual migration from Florida. Uncle Doug and Frank arrived and Aunt Caroline made it too. We all had dinner together Sat and spent the day together Sunday. Lots of euchre which Frank and I lost quite a bit of unfortunately but plenty of laughs too. Uncle Keith kept us in stitches as always. Doug and Frank are heading out soon as Frank leaves for Mich Tech in about 3 weeks.
