Summer 2014 Trip To Ohio And Michigan

-->
Our summer trip to Ohio and Michigan was wonderful! 
We had a wonderful visit at Grandma and Grandpa Keller’s house in Wadsworth for Grandpa Keller’s 75th Birthday!  Our Aunt Linda and Uncle Matt were there too, with our cousins, Clara and Joseph!  We had so much fun spending several days playing together, riding bikes, fishing, going to church and out for brunch and lunch together, sharing some lovely family meals at their home, and celebrating together at Grandpa’s birthday party!  How we miss spending time together, on opposite sides of the country – time together is always a blessing!
Then we headed even further north into Michigan, where Daddy (as well as Grandma Keller) remember having fun family summer vacations as children.  We visited the Harbor Springs Pier, Stafford’s Pier Restaurant, Mackinac Island, The Cherry Hut, and The Sleeping Bear Dunes.  We rode in cars, shuttles, ferries, bikes, horse and carriage, and saw the Blue Angels jets.  We stayed at hotels, the Great Wolf Lodge, and drove our car past the 100,000-mile mark!  What an exciting trip! 
And then we had a fun week visiting at Grandma and Grandpa Sturgeon’s house in Kenton, where we biked, scooted, played in the sand and in the pond, rode the golf cart, fed the fish, swung on the swings, played with bubbles, and made pies!  The best parts of our visit were sharing time with our Grandma and Grandpa and playing with our Uncle Mike and Aunt Robyn, our cousins Katie and Sam, and playing with our Anderson friends-like-family, Chloe, Issac, and Luke.  How we miss being together – not across the country, but feeling like it with a daylong drive between us.  Time together is always a blessing.

Thank you to family and friends for a wonderful visit!  We can’t wait to see you again soon!

With all our love,
 
Christopher and Katharine
