I went back to work last week but Rob has still been home on vacation and keeping busy doing little projects (and some big ones as well) around the house. I've been helping with some of the projects after I get home from work, so my blog has been a bit neglected lately. Hopefully I will be a more faithful blogger now that school is getting started up again.
One thing I have been wanting to blog about is our time up in Michigan. We rented a van and Nora, Mark, and Katie, Rob and I all drove up to Michigan together. The days flew by while we were up there. We were blessed with pretty good weather and clear roads which made the trip more pleasant. There was a large rock slide in NC in the fall that has caused a road closure that added about an hour to our trip each way, but other than that we had clear roads and no ice and not much snow.
While visiting Meg, Jim, and Drew we spent quite a bit of time visiting on the Isle of Sodor (where Thomas the train lives with his many train friends.) Drew had some Thomas trains before Christmas and received many more for Christmas gifts. One of his favorite new additions was Cranky the Crane.
He also received this workbench and tool kit, complete with goggles.
In my next post I will tell about another place we visited in Michigan, The Henry Ford Museum.
