MICHIGAN TRIP

I CAN'T DO THIS! Alyssa...how do you keep up your blog! Seriously...this post is almost 2 months late! I am determined to get better at this...so here goes:)

Way back in June, my mom, gram, sister and I went to Michigan for a few days to go wedding shopping for my sister! We had so much fun and I took a billion pictures!! Of course, anything to do with the wedding I AM NOT ALLOWED TO POST! So...here we go! I will try to tell you what the pics are all about....
So, my sister was very excited as we started our trip late Monday night! Love her face:)

Welcome to Michigan! hooray...we made it:)

Us at the rest stop making mom take pictures of us!

Mom & Grams at Ruby Tuesdays in Flint for lunch!

The restaurant that we ate at TWICE in Lapeer....you got so much food! We each even got our own loaf of bread! How great is that?!! It was very exciting...:)

Grams got something on her shirt so mom whipped out her ever present Tide-to-Go pen and helped Grams out! Mom even sang the song from the commercial..."Nah, nah, nah, nah...nah, nah, nah, nah..hey, heyyyy...good bye!" (ok...maybe you had to be there!)


My dear sister knocked over her chocolate malt...oh my! It was really funny at the time:)


So, the next day we went to Taco Bell for lunch and this is what I found in my lunch...an expiry date....luckily for them, I was in a really good mood and found it hilarious!!



We spent a REALLY long time at Joanne Fabrics getting all kinds of stuff for the flower girls and other stuff. My sister and I starting going a little crazy! I found a tutu hanging up so I thought I'd try it on and then twirl a bit! We were having a fabulous time until we saw a saleslady watching us:) Then we couldn't stop laughing...the lady went and told Grams to stay away from us:)


We went to Steve and Barry's and all bought shirts that say stuff! (It was my mom's idea!) Gram's shirt says, "I'm too pretty to work!" Cab's says, "Will work 4 shoes!" Mom's says, "High Maintenance!" and mine says, "Made in Michigan!"


This is just a flower at the Lipka's house! Just thought it was pretty...! The best pictures I have are of my sister's beautiful ring, but I'm not allowed to post them (she has this thing about showing pictures of her ring...it's just not as good as it is in person!)


Me climbing a tree...it was a bit difficult to get down! My sister was supposed to catch me...but she didn't do a very good job!


On the way home we stopped at an exit to see Susan and Nic who were headed the other direction. It was great to see them...but it was especially great to see Jocelyn.


Cab, Me, Suz and Jess! And the end of our trip...! Thanks for reading this really long post...the next few will be extra short so I can catch up:)
