A trip to Michigan

The kids and I drove to Michigan on July 2nd. We are still here and leaving in a few days. I figured I'd try a post from my sister's laptop. We went to Greenfield Village and Henry Ford Museum, in Dearborn, MI, the other day. There are pictures from that and other random fun things.

The kids love going through the tunnels in the mountains so I took their picture.




Josh playing ball with my dad, Bepop.




Enjoying Superman flavor ice cream!




As soon as we entered Greenfield Village a train came by and scared the boys. We had a chance to ride it later and it turned out to be their favorite thing there. :-)



This is the engine of the train we rode.




Josh inside a train engine in the museum. He looks dangerous.




They all like to take pictures. Ben took several, but this is the funniest. He wanted to take a picture of his shoes.



Josh took this one of Lizzie and Ben.


Waiting for the train.



My dad went with the kids and I. Here we are on the train.


The kids and I in the Village.


Lizzie took this picture of Ben and I at the roundhouse. Just like from Thomas.


The kids near a cornfield. Guess is was too bright for the boys.

The kids checkin' out a sheep. They were surprisingly loud.
This was a pretty house and garden we saw.
We've had a great time so far.

That looks like a blast! Trains, ice cream and I know they got to play putt-putt with Grandma G and Grandpa G! A big long week. I miss you!
