Memorial Weekend

We made it......
Well, we haven't heard From Rob and Naarah but that is to be expected. They should be wandering home probably Monday.
Off to print some pictures today. Tom managed to take some good ones. Don't be fooled, he took most of the pictures at the wedding, I was busy dealing with the video.
Don't ask, I haven't watched it. For as much as I love video, I guess I don't enjoy the editing as much as I would like to.
I enjoy the picture montages that I make, so, I need all the millions of pictures from Naarah to start the fun. We don't have 1/2 the pictures that were taken and I really want some of the fun ones that Carolyn and Joel took. They took them out to places on the island to get some cool shots.
Well, hope you have a good weekend. We are trying to.

Here is Carrie and Robert late for our trip back to town. The 4 of us did the Carriage Narrated tour of the Island on Monday. It was great. I'll have Tom pick his fav butterfly picture out and you can see that later. 

Had to hit the Irish pub on Sunday night. It was very nice. Then we hit the hottub where no camera were allowed 

Tom's version of a fancy shot, very nice. The happy couple. 

When the rain stopped it was great. It was still much brighter out side than on the porch. And don't let us fool you, it was cold 

Rob's family. Finally saw his younger brother and Dad's side. Arent the Kilts great? 

Well, I did work.... Oh well, what else would I have done with myself all day. 

We ran into Paul and Michelle on the Island. They had done Zo-demac 

WE LIVE

Hi, we made it home. I was going to post on Sunday night, but the island connection was bad. The whole thing was lovely. Cold, but lovely.
Naarah looked great and Rob can really pull off a kilt. I was impressed that he got his brother Mike to dress funny too. LOL :~)
I forgot how nice the island is as a get away. This was my first time actually staying on the island and it is sooo worth it. I'd love to go when it is warmer, but that is the whole reason you go to the island, there didn't used to be air conditioning, the island stays at least 10 degrees cooler than almost anywhere south of there.
The Horses work HARD on that island. Although they have better hours than most of the human workers. They are 6 hours on, so many off, 6 on and then 24 hours off.

Anyway, it was fun. I have pictures, but you have to wait until I get home. Some pictures are trapped on Naarah's laptop until they get back, but I think we got a good chunk onto Tom's MP# player to bring home and then filled up the card again. Dang, have to get another memory stick before we go traveling again.

The Bachelorette Party

I am extremely happy to say that nothing horrible happened at the outing.

We all stayed Sober (due to the fact we all have to drive to Mackinac Island today), and we got a good gift for Naarah without any planning at all. We went to Mongolian BBQ over in Novi and then hit Lucky's in the New Fountainwalk. For those of you who go- ok what is Lucky's, just think Dave and Busters - not as big, but they are going to get a bowling alley on the 2nd floor sometime soon. YES, now I am looking forward to that.

Tom is still in bed, I am getting equipment and clothes ready to go and well, we will be off shortly.
Have a great weekend and we'll see YOU on the island. Or Not.

Well, half of the party goers. Hmmm, once again- Im not in any pictures. Oh, you'll just have to wait until I get a couple from Melonie. I know she took at least one picture of me. 

Ah yes, the perfect gift for the perfect couple. We pooled the tickets you can win at the game place and bought Naarah her very own pair of Handcuffs. 

Jen and Melonie taking in the evil Mummy men. I recieved the Geek award of the evening from this game, I have a blister on my shooting finger..... so sad 

Another of us trying to beat the air hockey machine, her challenger... Carrie. 

Jen was the incredible foe for Naarah 

Here is the party girl herself, taking on the dreaded air hockey machine... 

We started the Evening at Mongolian BBQ and well, this is Carrie waiting for her thrid bowl at the grill counter.. 

From the loft, you can see the living room and the dinning area. The glass table was a good idea. Compare this shot to the one I took when it was all empty. YES, she is a bit amazing with the paint and such. 

The loft area, using the jungle theme from Tennessee, it has been revamped to fit the new space, even covering the flower covered loveseat. Over all a comfy feeling space. 

The perfect corner to the perfect bedroom.
