Here we are again, I have gotten permission to continue with this “Sunday Edition” for a while longer. Thank you for all the positive posts, I will try to keep each post new and interesting. This week I stuggled with what to write about. I decided to touch on a subject that everyone seems to be avoiding….I am missing Michigan!
I know that everyone in this house feels the same as me, but they either don’t know how to express it or they don’t want to open that box of emotions. Well, the fact is that I miss it everyday. Kim was looking through a bunch of pictures on her computer this weekend with the kids and I looking over her shoulder. It brought back many great memories. I would like to share a few of the things I miss with you in pictures…
Grandpa's Garden
Grandma's Front Porch
Playing in Uncle Mike and Aunt Donna's Pool
Family Time at Mom and Dad's
Hanging out at Deer Camp
I also miss my family members, the Tharp family, our home on 206 James Rd (epecially the HUGE backyard and garage), large shade trees, sub 100 degree temperatures, the list goes on and on and on.
I know your looking back at the title of this blog and wondering “has he been drinking?” The answer is yes, Diet Coke. I have brought all this up because as I was looking back on these memories, I couldn’t help but look forward to the memories we will make in our new home.
Our new Home
As I’ve sat here and described some of the things I miss about Michigan, I am also filled with things I look forward to in Texas. I have to admit, these are exciting times, August will signal the start of many things: Shealyn’s softball season, Carter’s football season and the first day of school, to name a few. I know our new house doesn’t have the history of our Houghton Lake home, but it will! We are finally together as family and memories are being made daily that will one day fill many scrapbooks.
