Thanksgiving in the Motor City

The girls, Dan and I spent the Thanksgiving weekend in Paw Paw and Detroit. What a great time. I don't know how they did it but 29 people all had a GREAT dinner.

Allie, AJ, Dan, Pappy and I all hit the 12 Oaks Mall the next day. WOW. What a mad house. So many people it was crazy. After I was so excited to be able to hit a japaneese market I had heard about online where I got some fun new Bento supplies, a HUGE bag of sushi rice and AJ had some of the best sushi of her life.

Next day we headed to Paw Paw with a stop at IKEA with Bill, Ivana and Danny. I Love that store.
YEA We're shopping help meeeeeee So cute Danny in Ikea


It was a long trip but I loved every moment of it.......ok maybe not when Uncle Bill tried to flood out AJ in her sleep (sorry about that) but I'd go back in a heartbeat any time!

Concert night. We headed to see Saving Able, Shinedown, A7F, and Buckcherry on Friday night. AJ, Allie and all their friends and Myself and my friends. We had a blast. The kids had great seats. For the first time ever since I've been going to the coliseum there was a beer garden on the floor of the show. What a great idea!

JMM Girls Golf

JMM Girls Golf Banquet 006

AJ celebrated the end of the golf season with two golf banquets. One was the All City Girls banquet and the second was just for the memorial girls team, where AJ won the award for the most unusual tan lines (due to her knee brace). We are very proud of her accomplishments this year. She broke 100 for the first time, (At University Ridge even) and got her first birdie at Bishops Bay

Memorial Homecoming

It's Homecoming weekend!


Friday Dan and I went to the Memorial Homecoming football game. Not really to see the game but to see AJ and Jake get to walk out of the field. Why you ask? Aj and Jake were the juniors on the Homecoming court. They got quite a cheer from the crowd when they were announced. I'm so proud of them both (ya i cried)






Aj and Allie went to the Memorial Homecoming dance on Saturday night. From what they told me they had a great time and everyone looked GOOD!
