So True

I laughed out loud when my friend sent me this - so true!

Go get 'em anyway!
Which is just what my friends and I did when we made our annual appearance at the Alger Heights Halloween Run: Pigs and farmers this year!

Run run run!

All the girlies

Annnnnnd my first trip to Wolfgang's for breakfast!

Such fun! See here and here for how it's been in the past!

Surprise on my Porch

The other day when I got my mail I noticed two large boxes...

What could be in these boxes I wondered aloud?  To my surprise I found the most wonderful house warming gift!

Thank you SO much Melissa Sioux!  She hunted down my matching bowls and plates!  Sooooo thoughtful, I was blown away!

I told you, everyone should have a Melissa.

Mackinaw Island

Last weekend I visited the gem of Michigan, Mackinaw Island!  No cars, just right!  There was a ladies retreat at the Grand Hotel, so several of us from church went - it was a very fun experience!

Ooo lala in front of the Hotel!

Verwys girls waiting for the ferry to cross

Dinner - I had more utensils than I knew what to do with!

Rebecca of the Grand!

Linds and Bec with The Grand Hotel Taxi

All the ladies -

Our room -

No trip to the Island would be complete without some chocolate - SHOES!

I'm holding up the bridge!

It was definitely time well spent with lovely friends and lovely surroundings! :)

Out the Sunroof

The weather here in GR has been absolutely spectacular! Definitely a reminder of the great and creative God we serve!  So I stuck my cam out the sunroof and this is what I got! Enjoy!

My street -

What a crazy looking tree! Who cares?! Not me, I own it, therefore I love it! :)

Ooo lala!

Lovely Lovely I just love Autumn!

So Proud

I love my new porch decor! :) Now if only home ownership could be all porch decor and no plumbing trouble, that would be super!

Happy Autumn, stop by soon!
