Dinner Date

We got to spend some quality time with our good friends, the Keslers, including our goddaughter, Coco.  Here are G and his dear friend Morgan with the balloon animals a man made them at dinner. 

Afterwards, we all went to the playground in the Square, where we found G's good friend Maddie and her aunt Judith, Patty's aquaintance.  It is a beautiful evening in Marietta Square, where people are packing in to see a band called Glow perform.  We really do enjoy these warm Georgia evenings.
 

Great Minds Dress Alike

Lego Star Wars clothing seems to be an essential part of any six-year-old's wardrobe.

Michigan Trip, Day One

Here is the first day of our trip, in photos and video.

G's Lego people kept him occupied for much of the ride from Georgia to Ohio.

We stopped in Lexington to visit with my high school friend Erica, whom I haven't seen in over 18 years, and her beautiful kids.

Tony, Debbie, Grandpa Kranz, Chip, me, and Matt before the big game.

The Chipster at Michigan Stadium.

The marching band takes the field.  We were very excited.

One of our proudest moments:  G cheering for our team.

Touchdown!

Student section.

Halftime show:  a tribute to Lady Gaga.

An appropriate formation.

Our first Michigan game as a family - in fact, the first one Matt and I have attended together, surprisingly.

Denard gets the ball.

And hands it off...  or is it a fake?

Cute Michigan fan.

Final score.

Exodus Of The Masses

Michigan victory:  42 - 37!  Now 110,187 people try to get home.  Fortunately, we can walk back to Carlene's and Roy's house.

Gaga

The flag corps and dance team are dressed like Lady Gaga, and the band is playing Lady Gaga songs for the halftime show.  So fun!
