Friday ~ Time to leave Pentwater, so lots of packing and cleaning up the camper. We stopped at KFC for lunch, then off we went for the long drive home. I have a few slide shows of the remaining pictures.

Saturday ~ Groceries in the am, then John took Trent to drums. I stayed home and made potato salad. Was planning on staying home for the day/night, but John forgot to stop and pick up his glasses, so we went back out after he and T got home. Then home for the night.

Sunday ~ Church, then over to the inlaws for dinner. John worked on a guitar in the shop, so didn’t see him much during the day. Louise, Trent and I went to Big Lots, where I found a cute Italian guy to go with my Italian themed kitchen, some new placemats for my table and a wallet to match one of my purses.

Babies galore

Posted by: Jodi  :  Category: Family Life, Friends

I just found out that another friend is pregnant, so many babies are soon to be born. Can’t wait to see all the birth announcements! I am hoping to take some pictures for my cousin when she is nearing the end of her pregnancy, and then again after her baby girl is born. And would be thrilled if she used one of my photos in her birth announcement. I’m excited for her, even if there are other family members that aren’t! Every baby should be celebrated regardless of what is going on in the background!

Friday ~ groceries in the morning, a quick clean up of the house, then Trent and I were off to the eye doctors. He was fitted for contacts, its going to be a long few weeks until he gets the hang of it.

Saturday ~ Took Trent to drum lessons while John was at his eye doctor appointment. Then John and I went on a drive to know where in mind, just north bound. We were stuck in traffic for a while, thinking it was construction and or accident related, but when we got up to the area, it was a car that had caught on fire. We took the shoreline trail, which took us on some curvy roads, around a few lakes: Stoney Lake, Mass Lake and then Pentwater. We went a little further and ended up in Luddinton. We walked along the pier, had dinner then headed home.

Sunday ~ We took the day off from church, so we slept in… so nice. I forgot how time consuming making a lemon meringue pie was, but I had promised one for my father in law for his birthday. We had dinner at the in laws, a game of cards, some accordion music, via my father in law, presents and dessert.

Commercials and hubby don’t mix

Posted by: Jodi  :  Category: Family Life

He hates it when he gets into a good part of a show when it breaks away to the commericals. I have tried to tell him, DVR it, then watch it later so you can fast forward through the commercials. He was getting ready to flip channels when a commercial for one of those diet products came one for all the food, can’t think of it right off hand. I could see the wheels turning, when I said, NO! All I could see was dollar signs. I told him I could make better meals, and they would be lest costly.

We can find the best weight loss pills if that is the route he wants to take. We both need to to something, just with is didn’t cost so much to get healthy. The stores need to make the healthy food less costly, and jack the prices up on the junk food!

I finally got the remote from him and hit record for his show and told him to go do something for a while then come back to start watching the show again.

Friday ~ started out as a beach day, but got the news that Robyn was going to be kid free for the day, so we stayed at her mother in laws pool. It was a relaxing day.

Saturday ~ John and Trent got up early to head out for a day of golfing with a few guys from church. I went to the “Women’s Day of Refresh” retreat. Great day with great friends. Then home to do some baking for church.

Sunday ~ church in the morning, then was going to be a day of relaxing once we got home. Well that changed after a few hours, I received a phone all from Christopher saying I needed to come pick him up from work as he cut his head and needed to get stitches. So off I went, which seemed like the longest drive ever to the mall. It took a while to figure out where exactly we needed to take him, got to love workman’s comp! He was up in the loft at his work getting boxes down and hit/scraped his head on one of the sprinkler heads. Ouch! An hour and a half and 6 staples later we were headed home.
