Braggin Grandma

OK, it's Grandma bragging time....here are a few recent pics of my adorable grandson, Colton. He will be 2 years old in October!! Where does time go? His baby brother Braedon is due toward the end of July. :o)







Hope everyone is having a wonderful Sunday. It is a very pretty day here, sunny and in the high 70's. Lots of people are down by the beach and fishing off the pier.

God bless!

Around Town & Crazy Love

A few pics around our little town.

Geese at the end of the street.



Windy, cool weather, a very rough Lake Erie! I actually seen six people swimming in this, crazy...if you ask me!


I believe this is a Red Bud tree?


Flags flying!


I have started reading a very good book, called "Crazy Love" by Francis Chan.


A dear friend recommended it to me and I am so glad!! I just started it, so perhaps I will blog more about the book when I get farther into it. If you want to see what this book is about, check out Crazy Love Book

Hope everyone is having a blessed and happy week!

Celebrate Your Marriage & The Grand Hotel

Dan and I had an awesome time on Mackinac Island. The Grand Hotel was fabulous as always. Celebrate Your Marriage with Jay and Laura was SO good! Dan and I look forward to this every year. If there is any chance that you and your spouse can get away and attend one of these Celebrate events, we highly recommend it! And who wouldn't want to stay at the Grand Hotel??
Here are some pics!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day everyone! I hope all you Mom's are having a wonderful weekend and I hope your Mother's Day is extra special.

Today, Dan and I went over to his daughter Michelle's new apartment and he hung some pictures and shelves for her. After the work was done, Dan, Michelle and I went to a great restaurant for lunch,
Manhattans. If you have time, check out the website, great pics of the place and take a peek at the menu! Michelle and I both had the Wildwood Wander salad, delicious!! Dan had NYC Cheese Steak.
A good thing about this restaurant is that it is close to where Michelle lives, so I know we will be dining there again! :o)

Take care everyone and God bless!
