Our annual fall family vacation definitely created many new memories for all of us--we just returned from Michigan where we visited Micah and Elizabeth. Now we can picture where they live, the hospital where Micah works, and the birthing center where little Ethan will be born in January!
Traveling home this week, we were just in time to see the sunrise over Lake Erie. I have to say, this was one of my favorite parts of the trip.
The crisp morning air at the lake made our jackets necessary. However, I admit that I never expected Michigan to treat us to such wonderfully warm weather the entire weekend! Here are my mom (Granny), Jonathan, Hannah, and Sarah with beautiful Lake Erie behind them.
And...guess who we took with us?! Lookee here at Aunt Bunny walking along the pier at Lake Erie!
This was the first time any of the seven of us had traveled to Michigan. Many, many thanks to everyone who has been praying for Aunt Bunny's recuperation. She really enjoyed seeing the fall scenery in all the states we traveled through.
More pictures of our travels to come.

It is funny for me to hear that you are saw Lake Erie for the first time.I used to live in Port Clinton,Ohio and across the street was the lake.In Cleveland we were about 5 minutes from it.I don't miss the cold and wind because of Lake Erie.
It is nice to see your extended family on the trip.
I don't remember if I have told you before or not.my nephew and his wife who were married 3 months after Micah and Elizabeth are expecting around March 21.

Deb, I have never been there or seen the lake so it was lovely to see it through your eyes. What beautiful pictures.

Deb ~ I'm so glad you all were able to make the trip to see Micah and Elizabeth. And what a double blessing to take your mom and Aunt Bunny with you. Gorgeous sunrise pictures. I can't see that kind of beauty without thinking about what an amazing Creator we have!
