Time to play catch-up!

We are swamped with craziness at this house but I thought that I would do some quick updates...

A year ago, when we left our Make-A-Wish trip, they gave us passes to several different amusment parks around the world that were good for one year. That year was fast approaching and we really wanted to get to Michigan's Adventure up in North Muskegon. We had been trying to get there all summer, but the weather never cooperated so we decided to go on the last weekend that they were open for the season. We had such a fun day! The weather was beautiful, the park was not busy at all, and the kids had a great time. Thank you Make-A-Wish for another great family memory!




The kids have been very into picking our friut. Personally, I would prefer to just buy the friut at the farmers market, but I guess it is all about the experience. We visited Cranes Apple Orchard to pick some Honeycrisp apples. Why in the world did I pick a Sunday afternoon to go and did it need to be 90 degrees out??? It was insane. We waited for over an hour to get a table for our lunch, than we had to fight the crowds at the orchard. I have never seen anything like it....next year, we will go during the week after the kids get out of school. Despite the occasional complaining(mostly from Mommy about the heat) we had a good time! And I do have to say I have made some very good glutten free, dairy free, egg free apple bread and cake!

That is it for now....more catch up before Halloween, I promise!!!!
