Getting back on track....

Exhausted.
We traveled 5 out of 8 days that we were on vacation.
Friday...drove 7.5 hours north to MI.
Saturday...I wouldn't have counted this as a travel day until we got stuck in traffic for 3.5 hours. Yes, it took us 45 minutes to get to my in-laws. It took us 3.5 hours to get back to my sisters. We pulled into her driveway at one a.m. In between travel though, we had a great day. The kids LOVED fishing with their daddy, uncle and grandpa.
Sunday...we enjoyed some time with my family and a few friends we haven't seen in some time.
Monday....we were off to west Michigan. The 4 additional hours was worth it. Beautiful! I love Lake Michigan.
Thursday....4 more hours back to the other side of Michigan.
Friday....7.5 hours back to KY.
What a great vacation we had. My thoughts and memories to come soon.
We ended up leaving Thursday night b/c the rain and cold was heading in on Friday.
If you camp, especially tent camp, I do NOT recommend packing up camp in the rain. We did that a few years back. It wasn't pleasant. We got some great pics of Max & Joshua playing in the rain, but the rest of it was not fun.

Today, Molly and I spent most of the afternoon grocery shopping. We went to 5 different places and enjoyed a girls lunch at Subway. Today while we were down the frozen foods aisle a gentleman pushed his cart by us and smiled at Molly. A few seconds later (hopefully enough seconds later) Molly says to me,
"Momma, that guy doesn't have any hair on top of his head!"
Oh goodness.
He didn't turn. Or maybe I turned first so he didn't see my red face.
Out of the mouths of babes :)

Off to do a few more things before sleep takes over.
