Thanksgiving

It has been a great time here in Michigan. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful family. The trip took 9.5 hours with Emily sleeping 6 of those hours. She did a good job riding in the car. Praise the Lord!

Thursday morning we prepared for the big dinner at Mom and Dad's house. When I say we, I mean Mom. :) Everyone came around 1pm and stayed through the evening. Emily was a big hit and she interacted well with the family.

Friday, we slept in and the Mom and I went shopping. We found some cute red dresses for Emily to wear with her Christmas tights. In the afternoon, we visited Grandma Wentz. Emily is her 55th great grandchild. In the evening, Ben and his wife Jessica and their two kids came for dinner.

Saturday, Eric and his Dad went to buy tires for our car. We got them just in time for the snowy trip back to Wisconsin. We visited Oma and Opa for tea. They loved hugging and playing with Emily. She was happy for most of our time there. Thank you Oma for the warm blanket for Emily! Ben came back to play games with Eric. In the evening, Eric took me on a date where we saw the tridge, drank coffee, and walked along main street. Mom and Dad watched Emily for us. Thank you!

Well, it's Sunday. We have been watching the weather and we think that it is going to be too snowy to go back to WI today. We still are not sure when we will be coming back. It depends on the snow.

Great pictures to come.
