Cheerleading 101

Kate, Amber and I weren't cheerleaders in high school, but we sure fooled everyone on Saturday! The 3-Day Walk cheer stations are so much fun. Amber brought the supply of candy for the three of us to hand out. It's such a fun and rewarding way to spend a Saturday morning!


This was our cheerleading neighbor. The "Ta Ta Man" was hilarious! We want Frankie to join us in a similar costume next year!:-)

We were so happy to cheer on the Neumeyer Knockers team. Amber's Aunt and Cousin were walking in honor of her Mother, Karen Neumeyer.

Girls' Night Out

Our book club needed a break from all of the deep discussions typical of our book club meetings (that's what we told our husbands anyway:-). We headed out in Royal Oak for a yummy dinner and some post-dinner festivities--including dancing of course!

Parents Weekend

My parents came for a visit from Iowa (really to deliver a cabinet that I couldn't pass up buying in Iowa;-). We had a wonderful time! Darin and I worked hard to make them feel at home......

We ventured downtown and checked out the old and new cars in GM's Wintergarden. After a stroll on the Riverwalk, we headed to Ford Field where Darin used his master scalping skills to get us tickets to the Lions vs. Browns pre season game. (Dad had a BIG smile on his face!)

Dad and Darin also golfed nine holes while Mom and I got massages. (Notice the big smiles in the picture BEFORE they played:-)

Evan & Jen's Wedding

It was so much fun to spend Friday evening at a wedding! It was a beautiful reception and fun was had by all!
