Halloween 2011

NYC Shopper & Green Lantern

Vacation Recap

 Here is a picture of Katherine, Sebastian, and Wes in the cockpit of the FedEx plane at the Memphis Children's Museum.

As we drove through Indianapolis, IN, we decided to stop at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
We took a lap around the racetrack....

Sebastian came to a conclusion...

"Dad, this track is on Gran Turismo Five...I didn't know it was a real track!"

Finally in Michigan, our vacation destination, we met up with extended family for brunch at a beach house in Grand Haven overlooking Lake Michigan.
We walked along the beach, roasted marshmallows to make smores, and enjoyed reconnecting with family, some of which we hadn't seen in nine years.
We left Grand Haven to spend a few days in Lundington, MI.






After the four of us spent several days hangin' out in Lundington, we headed to Grand Rapids.
Wes and Verne enjoying a nice father/ son moment before dinner.

Before we headed home the kids and I visited the Grand Rapids Children's Museum. 
Katherine & Sebastian love visiting children's museums, and I enjoy watching them use their imaginations. 


This last picture is taken at a rest area where we stopped to let the kids run around and burn off some energy before another round of driving home to Texas.
