Since I was under the weather during their visit I don’t have many photos and no video…but here I am sharing what I do have :). Their parents dropped them off with us on the 26th, and we took them back to Casey when we all met for Pete’s birthday dinner in Midland. The house …

A Day In The Life – Dec. 6, 2023
I didn’t take video…and only a couple of pictures…but thought I’d share about the day anyway! We needed to go to Mt. Pleasant (MI) for a couple of things. We had a Barbie doll that got put into our order by mistake on our last visit, and didn’t notice until we got home, so we …
