Happy 2012

Yes, we made it home. It was a long, straight through, ride home.  Mary and Sarah did a great job driving the Midnight shift.  We all slept as much as we could in the car.  Sure isn't something I want to do again.  Thankful for safe travel. I think we are still recovering.

We had a fun time celebrating Ernie's birthday last Saturday. Good food, friends and family.  What could be better?  Today is his "real" birthday.  Happy Birthday Dad!

Today I picked up Sammy the Dog and he is glad to be back home.  Tends to follow me around or sleeps in his favorite spots.  I think he is even glad to be out in our snowy yard. Laundry is caught up, errands done and had lunch with Mary before she and Brandon went back to University of Michigan. Time sure flies. Matthew goes back to school tomorrow and I am back to work!  Sarah will be home through the weekend.

For now, we are watching the Sugar Bowl.  What a crazy game this has been! Come on Wolverine's and WIN!  GO BLUE!

This year promises lots of events:
  • Sarah graduates from Hope College and begins Grad School in the fall.
  • Matthew graduates from Greenville High School and will be a college freshman in the fall.
  • Mary will travel to South Africa with the University of Michigan Women's Glee Club~On Tour!
  • Jeff and Grace will be empty nesters.  :(

Hoping I can wake up refreshed in the morning,

Gracie
