Today we trailered the Ranger four wheeler to Sidnaw, Michigan and drove it to Bergland. What a beautiful scenic ride with rolling hills, nice bridges and a waterfall.
We saw lots of deer, rabbits, birds including a turkey, and a turtle along the way.
and boy, oh boy did they have fun!
Rose E reeled in this cat fish and was so excited to see a "kitty fish"
The fish where biting like crazy, it was so much fun to see the excitement in the kids as we reeled-up each fish. It was also neat because we watched a turtle as it kept poking it's head in and out of the water.
This weekend we got a new fish tank. The kids have wanted one for months and have spent hours already gazing at their new finned friends!
We also got two fiddler crabs whom have kept the tank very interesting to watch!
A snap shot of the princess before her party on Saturday! Gotta love the outfit!
Of course she had to have a dog cake (this girl loves dogs)!
A family shot.
And few pictures of her with her three roses in front of our blooming crab apple tree.
Happy Birthday sweet heart!
Suddenly we have had beautiful weather again. It's been a fun but busy week so far! On Sunday we took a Ranger ride to Lac La Belle. This picture was taken in front of the old Central Mine church, but the picture does not do justice to the rolling hills in the background. What beautiful territory out there! Then on Monday we had all of Walter's classmates over to see our trains. Our little man was in his glory of course. Today was another sunny day so we spent the entire afternoon at the chutes and ladders park in Houghton and had dinner at the Mine Shaft restaurant. Fun, fun, fun!
We picked up our new wheels today. We took Cale (Walter and Rose E's cousin) with us on our first ride on the trail.
It was so nice to see everything so green again, and some of the trees flowering along with the duck and geese swimming in the ponds. It's just so refreshing to be out on those trails.
Every night this week we have had something fun to do with the kids, anyway, the circus came into town on Tuesday, it was so thrilling to see those great big animals along with all of the other excitement!
