Home from Michigan, Reflections of our visit

Michigan was filled with smiles, big cheesie smiles of Evan.   What a joy for grandma and grandpa!   We didn't get out much this trip, we were more interested in getting to know our new family member.

Ang took us to 2 very nice greenhouses.  Angie purchased a very big Angel Wing Begonia for me to bring home.  We put it in the RV to get it home and it almost wouldn't fit through the doors.
Ang and I also purchased some plants to put in her flower boxes at the farm.  A touch of home, beautiful flowers to welcome guest at the front door is always pleasing.


We spent many hours going through dishes and more dishes and then packing and washing more dishes in the farm house that Angie is getting ready to move her family.


I could not believe all the beautiful old family heirlooms throughout the house, I think they said that Evan will make the 7th generation to live on this farm.  Isn't this cheese dish beautiful?

My son-in-law's old truck after it was refurbished.  This truck belonged to his grandfather and he hauled the apples from the orchard...Danny and I both felt like we had stepped back in time.

Another picture at the greenhouse.
We plan to go back up this summer again, we want to see more of Michigan...then in August we will be going to Nebraska to see our Youngest daughter's family.
