Tomorrow!

I didn't think this day would ever get here!!

It feels like it has taken forever for July 22nd to get here. I think we musta bought tickets 5 years ago.

Tomorrow we will be enjoying some Keith Urban!!

It's been two very long years since we saw him last.

Last time there was 3 of us and although we had a blast as you can see from the picture below, this year is going to be FANTASTIC.

pow wow

We went to the pow wow for 4th of July.

We took our camper and stayed at the campgrounds.

Joel and Sherry and the girls, Em and Cole and their family, and Nana and Papa were all there also.

Sarah and Elizabeth took some interesting pictures for me when I wasn't paying attention.

Uncle Marty, Head Dancer.

Chris' brother.

The girls out enjoying themselves doing a tribal dance.

Our family at the casino.

We were all hot and sweaty from being out in the hot sun all day at the pow wow.

All the grandkids.

We took a group picture too but mine did not turn out. I hate having a stranger take the picture. You never know what your going to get, and in this case I got a very off center blurry picture.

My lovely little children.

ha, they WERE so good all weekend.

Proud of their culture!

On Sunday we spent the day at Lake Michigan. The weather was beautiful and the kids loved it.

Sarah, My little bathing beauty!!

Grandma Turkey's summer visit

Jeremy giving the Duncan tour

Birthday surprise

On our way to Duncan and Lunch with Josh and Allison.

My pictures are all out of order. Mom showed up on Friday and surprised Sarah for her birthday party. We hung out with friends and family on Friday night and had cake and presents.

On Saturday, Josh, Allison, Chase, Mom, Jeremy, Jacob, Sarah and I all went to Duncan Aviation for a tour. We went to lunch after at the Dark Horse in Marshall. It was a really nice day with everyone.

On Sunday we took Sarah to camp. It was fun dropping her off and having mom with us.

Monday I worked and mom hung out with Jacob during the day. That night we went to see Bridesmaids, funny funny funny.

Tuesday mom and I went to Shipshewana. Lots of walking for mom so we had to come home and nurse her knee.

Wednesday we went and picked Sarah up from camp.
Thursday I worked in the morning and when I got home I drove mom to Bay City to Aunt Kathy's house.

She stayed there for a week and we just got her back on Saturday. Josh and Allison had a great party on Friday night with both sides of the family. I sure do have some awesome Aunts.

Yesterday we sent Jacob off to camp and went to church. In the afternoon mom and I took Sarah to her Brownies party. We went to Putters in Kalamazoo. She FINALLY got her patches from all year long. Now Jeremy just needs to sew them on.

That pretty much catches us up on her visit. Tomorrow we are heading to Saugatuck for the day. Maybe a movie, maybe some dinner out.

Sadly I will drive her to the airport on Wednesday. It feels like she just got here and she's been in MI for 3 weeks. I'm sad cause I don't know when I'll see her again. I wish she didn't live so far away. I guess maybe thats why I cherish the time that she is here.

Nascar 2011

and here's Jimmie, too bad he crashed less than 10 laps into it...
mmmm some Martin Truex Jr.

wow, he's looking old and like he has had too much botox!
ugh I hate this picture but I love that poster!!

Jeremy holding his sign for Trackside, he was so proud.

Too much excitement for him!!

I had more fun camping then I did at the race, maybe next year I'll just hold down the fort while everyone else attends the race.

Nascar weekend

We're ready to go!!

Hoping to see this on Sunday afternoon!!

Maybe we'll catch him for an autograph!!

More likely we are going to see lots of this.....

This would be my dad, praying the Jr. finally wins after 3 years of no wins.

Its not gonna happen!Also hoping for some of this...hopefully between Harvick and Busch!!

And with any luck we'll run into this man, keep your fingers crossed!

was gonna

I was gonna blog about contacts and tampons but my friend Mesha told me not to, said it didn't make sense so I won't....

Green Lantern

I don't know who the Green Lantern is.

I don't know if this is like a Superman kind of character.

I don't know if he looks like the above picture in this movie.

I don't know if he is naked like in "The Proposal".

I don't know if he is Green the whole movie.

But what I do know is that I will be going to this movie even if I have to go by myself and endure another "going to the movies alone" fiasco like the last time I tried going alone....it will be worth it.
