This past month, Bo and I had the privilege of flying up to Michigan for a friend's wedding, and a week with our married siblings. Since Bo is now a private pilot {YAY!}, he and a fellow pilot friend flew us in a little 4-seater to Orlando... and from there we flew commercially the rest of the way. We had a blast every single day. It was just an amazing trip! It seemed like the days flew by, until we were homeward bound again. But that's just how good times are. We played volleyball {a MUST with these friends=)}, helped decorate and prepare for the wedding, witnessed the wedding {of course!}, went to church, joined up at a park with lots of my siblings' in laws and played soccer till dark, worked on Joshua and Farrah's house that they bought to fix up and re-sell, Bo and the guys played golf, while I visited a friend and her new baby, Bo went to Traverse City to work with Joshua, while Farrah and I painted at their house they're re-selling {Scottville}, spent a couple days and nights with Evan and Joanna, went sight-seeing with Joanna, went to church Wednesday night, went boating and jet skiing on Ford Lake with our married siblings=), played ultimate Frisbee with Joshua and Farrah and some friends of theirs, went ice- skating {Bo's and my 1st time!}, and last but NOT least... had some nice long catch up/theological discussions waaay past midnight=) Enjoy the pics!
