Michigan - Birmingham (part 2)







After our week in Holland, we picked up dad at the Grand Rapids airport and traveled on to East Lansing (Michigan State University) to have lunch with friends Emily and Addy before making it to our final destination: Grandma and Grandpa's house (where the supply of tractors and trucks to play with seems to never end!) A highlight of our visit was Henry and Lucas' first trip to the Henry Ford Museum. 





We were lucky to have several more opportunities to see cousin's Oliver and Elliot with play dates at parks, the Detroit Zoo, Cranbrook as well as a delicious dinner their house (thanks Uncle Tony and Aunt Jessica!)  




We were thrilled that our dear friends, Jeff, Libby and Lucy, that we know from our time in Ann Arbor at the University of Michigan, visited us at Grandma and Grandpa's house. We also were lucky to see friends Owen, Jessi, Will and Alex. But per usual, we didn't get to see everyone we had hoped to.  





Our long road trip back home to Minnesota was broken up with an amazing stop in Illinois at Farmer (Uncle) Dave's house with cousin's Jon, Christa, Jesse and Tenli. Henry, who was renamed "The Horse Whisperer," enjoyed riding a Shetland Pony and a tractor with Tenli.
