Well...we did make it to Michigan :) The Internet has been slow (or not working at all) and we've stayed busy, so I haven't had much of a chance to update...but I'm gonna try and catch up :)Our flight to Michigan was pretty good. We got to Tampa Airport in plenty of time to get some coffee-of course! The terminal we always fly out of has a Starbucks, which is very convenient for me...
We got Eli a pair of shoes for the trip-in case he wanted to 'walk' around. As soon as we put them on, his feet were planted to the ground...he wasn't quite sure WHAT to do with those 'things' on his feet!
We played in the play area for a while. Eli had a lot of fun experiencing lots of new things!
He had some little girls trying to play with him the whole time :) That's my little cutie!The flight itself went pretty good. Our flight in Tampa was delayed for about an hour, so our layover in Atlanta wasn't as long. On the flight from Tampa to Atlanta Eli slept for about a half hour and then played pretty well. We landed in Atlanta and grabbed some lunch and got on our flight to Flint. This flight was a little longer...and Eli was much squirmier...We tried to play his video, but it wouldn't work. He wasn't terrible, but it felt a LOT longer than the first flight :)
We arrived, met up with Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Bob, got our luggage, and headed for home.
Don't ya just LOVE the green grass?! I love just sitting in it! (and not worrying about bugs, or sand spurs...)
Eli really liked it too...he kept trying to eat it...I don't think he got any
That evening we had a bonfire and roasted marshmallows (none for Eli...) Here's Grandpa helping Adriana.
The kids play HARD on the farm! Notice the dirty face :) She's super cute even with a little dirt on her cheeks :)
'Say cheese!' This is my cousin Brandon and his daughter Katelyn. She didn't want to stop eating her cracker to say cheese :)
YUMMM! Smores!
Me & Julean
I love bonfires in my parent's backyard!
We even had some sparklers! It was a LONG day of traveling, but very fun. Mom & Dad had a bunch of family over for the Tuinstra family reunion, so I got to see a bunch of my cousins, aunts & uncles...more of THAT coming soon!

looks like you already are having fun. Are the leaves changing color yet?
looks like so much fun!
So apparently I am a slacker sister in law and my friend comments on your blog more than I do! I read your blog in my email....I love your posts! And let just say, Michigan looks like fun. However, there are people who live in Florida that miss you. Eliud won't admit it, but you know....and I DO TOO!
LOVE the last picture of Julean and the baseball and sparkler... I'm going to ignore the fact that a BABY is holding a sparkler since it is so adorable. Safety Patrol, you know. *sigh* all the good things about Michigan. Ask Mom if we can celebrate Christmas in September to avoid the snow.
