Michigan...

Last month we went on our LAST trip as a family of 3 home to Michigan. We were blessed to get to spend a wonderful week with our family.

Xander did awesome on the plane, this being his 3rd trip, he's kinda a pro haha He got his first pair of "real" pilot's wings. Flying was a breeze this time thanks to many snacks, stickers and books. When we were landing Xander commented on that funny feeling you get in your tummy when the plane goes down - you know that kind of weightless feeling- he said (loudly), "It feels just like when I pee Mommy!" haha He giggled and giggled the whole time, Chris and I couldn't keep a straight face.

The First day we arrived we were blessed to have everyone gather together for a great family picnic in Grandma & Grandpa's backyard. Xander's favorite part was getting to play with the "big kids", I think it was Grandma's favorite part too...

Of course there had to be a 4-wheeler ride... after this they all snuck off with grandma to pet the animals down the street, I'm told Xander chased a poor duck in circles haha

We went to Coney Island, I HAD to have a Coney dog while I was in town. Xander once again got the chance to chase ducks!

Xander really enjoyed Grandma and Papa's garden... Here he is discovering how green beans grow, he was trying to eat one off the vine!

His favorite chore... "helping" grandma do the dishes. (Note: this stressed me out more than you know, he was soaked, kitchen was soaked, Grandma just laughed and reminded me of the days I used to do the same!)

Wearing grandpa's shoes...

More 4-wheeler time with Daddy, they went on a ride every day the weather was nice...

Eating breakfast, ready to head outside for the day : )

And we made a nice trip to Port Huron to see the water...

Pretending to take a picture of Daddy taking a picture...

This boy sure loves his great-grandpa...

And lastly the plane trip home, this picture says it all...
