Thursday - May 11

 Another busy fun day...we drove to Mackinaw and met my brother Bob and Linda at the Depot Tea Room for shopping and delicious lunch.   We love this tradition (well, at least Linda and I do) of meeting there and also shopping at Beth Ann's (nice clothing store close by) and then going to Braker's for food goodies from the Apostolic Christians and then to Scottwood Floral to ooh and aah at all the spring-time pretties.    We were there in early December - spring and Christmas time - wow!!!    And the tea room is sooo good.

Said our good byes - we'll be together next week in Mendota.

Linda, Bob and beautiful flowers at Scottwood Floral

On home and a quiet rest of the day.    Walked around the campground and new states tonight are Iowa, Colorado, Texas and Arkansas.

This tree was planted 3 1/2 years ago at CCHS in memory of Patrick - it was so small
 but now really thriving

Annette went with Maeve on a field trip to a mine and discovered that NC is the only state that has emeralds in North America
Panning for emeralds!

Our niece Katy and Mike's' baby, Emily Sue (4 months) has been in the hospital since Sunday night - MAY come home tomorrow.    She's been having breathing problems and not keeping her bottle down - no longer on oxygen so hoping her upcoming bottles are yummy and not upset her tummy.    Prayers please.

Beckett update - he has started the chemo and was hoping to go back to school full time today.    He's got a long road ahead....but what a little trooper!   πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™
