October Sister Trip

Well our sister trip is over and we hated to see it end.  It was a great week with sister's, visiting, catching up and our usual other vices..LOL.  We started the trip picking Linda up in Detroit and heading to Erie Pa., where we spent the night and went to an Otters game.  Devin was in net and we won, so it was well worth the trip.  On Sunday we headed to Lexington, KY, where we went to the Horse Park.  It was fabulous and we saw horses we didn't even know were breeds.  We took all backroads from Erie to Cindy's and saw some of the most beautiful countryside, it is truly amazing how beautiful our country is and how much you miss when flying.  At Cindy's we toured the Corvette plant.......I WANT ONE!.......went to lunch with Cindy's girlfriend, shopped, watched movies and on our last day went hiking by some caves.  It was a fabulous walk with beautiful scenery.  We then went to Jackson's Orchard with the top down on Cindy's mustang, singing at the top of our lungs (Your never too old to go topless.....LOL).  We followed that with a cruise around Bowling Green and an ice cream.  It was a fabulous day, a fabulous week and I love my sisters so very much.  We never fail to have a great time and can't wait for the next one now.

Update..........

Since we have not updated our sister blog since the family reunion, I will fill you in on this year.  In January we flew to Calif. where we visited with Kathy and Jeff in their new Kathnashian cottage.  We had a wonderful time, singing Karaeoke, drinking wine and just taking in the spectacular view from their deck.  We then drove to the LA airport where we picked up sister Cindy and went to Santa Barbara, where we spent the next several days.  What a beautiful view from the backyard and a great beach house, we had such a great time, visiting and walking the beach, where we found all kinds of sea glass.  Its always so wonderful when we all get together, seems we never run out of things to talk about.

Family reunion

Sister Update.....

Well it has been over a year since our sister blog was updated so I figured I would add to it in order to keep it going. Some news to report, sister Linda is no longer living in Napa, they sold the vineyard and now live on the ocean in Santa Barbara. We had our bi-annual family reunion in Leland this past August and had a fabulous time as usual. Cindys kids were able to come this time, though unfortunatley Linda's were not and we missed those who were not there. Life goes on and we grow older, but still love and cherish the times we can spend together. We are going on a sister trip in January to Santa Barbara to spend time together and catch up on our lives.

Sister Trip 2011

What a wonderful sister trip. It was great spending time with all of you. I still laugh at how many times we locked ourselves out of the cabin! Enjoyed the laughs, talks and games.....oh we can't forget the games!..lol I Love our bracelettes Linda, thank you and also thank you for your generosity. I love you guys and wanted to share some of my pictures.

Just An Update

Well sisters I was tired of looking at the same old post and nothings been added since last November, so I thought I would post something new. Our sister trip commences on Friday when Rose and I leave MI to meet Linda and Cindy in Indiana. We will be staying at the Crown Plaza Friday night and then on to our "rustic" cabin somewhere between Indianapolis and Dayton, Ohio. We have to provide all of our own linens, utensils, etc. and we are hoping the cabin is not under water, given all the rain in that area. We will be staying there from Sat. through Wednesday, "roughing" it; however, we will be together and that is the ultimate purpose. We will be photographing, exploring and just kicking back and enjoying each others company....we will make up for lost time. Everyone is so busy that we dont get to spend alot of time together so hopefully this will catch us all up. Safe travels to all of us and see you in a few days.

A California Visit

Well Clarence, Devin and I went to San Jose for a hockey tournament in October and got to spend some much needed quality time with family. Peter and Linda were with us the whole five days, while Erik, Kayla and Emma were able to spend two days. It was so much fun being with all of you and you finally got to see Devin play hockey. We had such a good time and spent all day Friday in San Francisco. We got to eat in Chinatown, spend time on Fisherman's wharf and ride the ferry around Alcatraz with a narration of it all. I learned things I didnt know about San Fran and we got to see the places we grew up in, like Presidio and the Palace of Fine Arts, where we walked to school. It was very enjoyable and Peter was a great tour guide. It was an exhausting day but well worth all the up and down walking we did, and of course those much needed glasses of wine at the end of each day. On our last day, Peter took Clarence and I to Santa Cruz, we walked the pier and then saw some Redwood Forests. It was so nice being with my sister, I have missed you all.
