Vacation

We've had such a good time on our vacation. It was a good choice to come to Michigan to see my husbands brother and wife. They are so good to us while we are here. They drive us around to what we want to see and they don't complain that we take up all their time. It's also been very refreshing as we haven't stayed busy the whole time. We have had plenty of downtime and relaxing.

We went to the mall yesterday and just had a good time. Today we went to Shipshewana, Indiana, which is Amish country. We saw amish stores, people, horses and buggies, and so much more. We went on a buggy ride, went to some farms that have stores that sell their products...the popcorn farm, the cheese factory, and a honey farm. We went there a few years ago when we were up here on a vacation and it was great to have Lizzy experience it.

Tomorrow we plan to go to the zoo and to a place called Craigs Cruisers (it's like a family fun place with lots to do). It will be nice after today to have a day close to their home and not as crazy and rushed as today was.

It's also been really neat to experience Johns first vacation ever. I know he won't remember any of it, but we have plenty of pictures we will share with him. He has been such a good baby this whole time (even on the planes and in the airports).

I love our yearly vacation time. I've always loved to travel, to experience new places, new food, and see new sights. I don't think I will ever stop enjoying this. I want Scott and I to be the retired couple that just travels all over the country having a good old time!
