Grandfather's 90th Birthday...

This past weekend we spent 3 days with my family in Michigan to celebrate my Grandfather's 90th birthday. Everyone arrived on Friday and the events began on Saturday morning at the Michigan War Memorial Museum in Frankenmuth. There were about 30 of us in total that participated in the weekend's events, including 5 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren. Saturday morning we made the trek to see and hear all about Grandfather's time serving in the war as a pilot. His memory was very sharp, as he was recalling many flights where he transported the wounded...giving us many details. Was fascinating to learn all about his history.

Saturday evening we went to the Club for some professional family photos (will upload them once I get them) - this is just 4 of Grandfather's 10 great-grandchildren listening to photo instructions

Kim RARELY drinks, so I had to take a pic

My niece, Taylor, and cousin, Alyson...they both have their drivers' permits and were high-fiving when they learned they would be the designated drivers. Hilarious.

On our way to and from Michigan, we made an overnight stop and a pit stop at Grandpa Bob's house (to break up a long car ride). The girls are starting to play together...it's so fun to watch them interact!

Occassionally I have to hop into the back seat of the car to help with one or both of the girls. This was my view. DJ Lance Rock. Don't. Be. Jealous.

And Delaney Bug. We are HAPPY to finally be home!
