The boys had a half day on Friday, Nov. 9th, so we headed up to the Brown House for the weekend. We had rainy weather off and on, but Saturday was mostly cool and beautiful. We got to see beavers busy at work, swimming through the water on Saturday morning.
Then we headed to Cadillac to see The Bee Movie. The kids enjoyed the movie going experience (ie. popcorn, slurpee, candy) but honestly, the storyline was over their heads. Dan and I had a few good laughs, and we both agreed it was more of a movie for grown ups than for kids.
On our way home, we picked up our dining table from the rustic furniture place. We had dropped it off in September to be fixed. It's back now and looks great.
Later, Grandpa Lu and Aunt Lisa came over for dinner. Grandma Dorena stayed home, since she wasn't feeling well. There was much wrestling going on between Grandpa, Daddy and the boys! You could tell Grandpa Lu had missed his little buddies.
We headed back to Berkley on Sunday, by way of Lansing and stopped off to visit the Sneathens. The kids ran around and played while Dan, Todd, Shel and I played some darts and had Jersey Giants. Yum. It had been a while and was nice to see them.
Dan always says when we go up for a weekend that it just doesn't feel long enough, but I don't agree. I love our little escapes, even if they are only for a weekend. I think they just leave you wanting more!
