On Saturday (10/7) we traveled down to Battle Creek for Kyle's Grandpa's (Judy's dad) funeral service. I'm sure that it was a beautiful service...at least what I saw of it. Ashlyn wasn't able to sit still for very long, so we spent most of the service with her in the nursery. Kyle sang several songs and played his guitar. While it was a sad occasion, it was great to be able to spend time with the entire Vande Vrede clan. We all stayed at a hotel Saturday night and spent the evening...until the wee hours...in the lobby watching the Tigers beat the Yankees (WOOHOO!) and UofM beat MSU (YEEHAW!!) and playing games. It was such a blast!
On Monday we went to Robinette's for lunch and so the kids could play and see the pumpkins and watch the apple cider being made. The kids--as well as the rest of us--had a lot of fun! Here they all are sitting on the wagon that was made into a slide. The bigger kids were great about helping the little ones slide down. (L-R: Eliani, Blaze, Luke, Olivia, AnnaMay, Ashlyn, Stone) Ashlyn came home a sticky green mess from the caramel apple sucker that her daddy got for her :)
