Memorial Day weekend, 2008

Thursday morning of Memorial day weekend started off with a bang!! Savy Jene woke up with what we later found out was "pink eye".... yee haw.... after a trip to see Aunt Beth at her office, and medication, we were off to the U.P.

We ended up spending the night with Dama at her hotel in St. Ignace. Savanna and George so missed their "Dama" and were so excited to see her!! Aunt Marcy was there to welcome us too!! After breakfast with Dama, we were off to TL!!

Our first stop was to see Aunt Kimmy for haircuts for both Georgie and Savy and a nice visit!! The kidswere in school and we were sad to miss them and Uncle Kirt.

From there we were off to see Grandma Barager who had been in Florida all winter and had just recently got back to TL.... After some cookies and homemade chicken noodle soup, Dad dropped the golf cart and off Mom and the kids went to the cabin... Cousin Tom had arrived and had a "bad pipe"....

Of course, we had to stop at the store and see Grandma Victoria for some ice cream and a visit too before we ventured out to the mosquito and black fly-haven of a cabin!!

As Savanna would say.... "my Donny and Aunt Bethany" came Friday night to spend the weekend with us... Dad and Don got the boat launched, the golf cart home from Uncle Dennis', a new-used swing set from Uncle Kirt and Aunt Kimmy set up, etc.

It was great weather all weekend, pretty warm.... and oh, did I mention that the mosquitos and black flies that chowed on the kids and drove the adults nuts... by the time we left, which was a day early because of the bugs, the kids looked like they had chicken pox and Dad called he realtor on the way home and listed the cabin for sale!! Don't go to the cabin on Memorial Day weekend!! BUGGIES!!

P.S. GEORGE LEARNED HOW TO SAY "BUG BITE" (HIS NEW NICKNAME)
