Random Michigan photos

Pictures from Michigan (just a few, so of course they are random). Most of them are of Beatles Lover and her good friend Ninja Vampire.

The beach at Lake Michigan (yes, this is Lake Michigan)


Our little models


So Ninja Vampire got dumped in the pool by Beastly Boy. She chased him into the kitchen and hit the fridge. All survived, as you can see by this picture.


Ninja Vampire's parents, Nuclear Scientist and Busy-Busy Lady

This is the way we stear the boat, stear the boat, stear the boat...


Warring chopsticks


Oh, how cute are they!?!

Beatles Lover found this flower outside a costume shop (that was unfortunately closed)

Random weather at home and away

Beatles Lover and Most Happy Girl had a wonderful time visiting with friends in the great state of Michigan last week. Even though it rained almost every day, it never lasted long, and we were able to enjoy time at the beach and trips to South Bend and South Haven.

Pictures to follow. (I know I've said that before, but this time I'm serious!!!)

Random things that have been happening lately...

...that will be fully written about once I'm rested and completely recovered from it all:
  1. Game Boy and K-Man played great at the final band concert of the year.
  2. Beatles Lover, Snhq Girl, and Shutterbug performed in the final choir concert of their junior high school experience.
  3. Super Swim Chick graduated from high school with an amazing scholarship to the college of her choice.
  4. The run of Oklahoma! with Taylorsville City Arts Council has come and gone.
  5. Mr. Perfect's very large family came to our very small house for FHE the first Sunday of June.
  6. (still going on) Planning for celebrating with Most Happy Girl's parents for their 50th wedding aniversary (it's not until June 22, but the planning has been quite something).
Hopefully, full postings along with pictures for each will be coming in the near future to a blog near you, namely, this one.

A Trip to Escalante

We just came back from a fun, rain-filled road trip to Escalante in Southern Utah. What a blast! Beatles Lover and Snhq Girl came with us. It was a good test for how well Mr. Perfect's new Nissan Xterra runs. (It runs just swell.)

We spent two nights in a cozy Bed & Breakfast in Escalante and then made the upwards move to the tent for the final night. The weather was cooler and rainy, which kept us out of the slot canyons, but didn't stop anyone from climbing all over rocks or jumping into the pool at the bottom of Lower Calf Creek Falls.

Pictures forth-coming.
