labor day weekend

we spent labor day weekend in michigan visting family and relaxing. it was great except i was sick almost the whole time with a sore throat,achiness and eventually a terrible cough and general tiredness.
so needless to say, i wasn't good about taking pictures over the weekend.

great grandma betty, doesn't she look fabulous for 80-something? not that anyone is counting :)

spent a day in grand haven with grandpa and mimi. the classic dairy treat. thanks to mimi for feeding declan his ice cream so the rest of us could concentrate on our cones! poor kid, looks like he might be pushing the weight limit on that umbrella stroller!

it was a gorgeous day by the lake. we walked around downtown and along the boardwalk.

enjoyed a wonderful summer dinner al fresco. mimi has a very beautiful garden!


my rocking chair from when i when i was his age. he loved it and sat in it the whole time as soon as it was brought out of storage. my mom would like to paint it white for a future granddaughter someday, but i kind of like it in its original 70s form!

So sorry that you were sick! But at least you got to see family and spend some time at the lake.

I more than made up for your lack of picture-taking.
