I'm also hoping that having my kids there doesn't prove too complicated. It was great to be so footloose and fancy free last fall. But it will be nice for the kids to get to know Betsy (Whitney's middle name is Elizabeth because of Betsy), Greg, Owen and Emmit and to get to see Betsy's mom Faye and brothers Tim and Dave again.
Tim and Dave both visited us in Utah (though separately) back in 2005 so the kids have great affection for them.
Looking at these pictures from 2005 hurts my heart and reminds me how long it's been since the kids have seen Tim and Dave. Wow.
But then again, they haven't seen Betsy since the summer of 2004! (We took her to Seven Peaks with us, she was wild and crazy.)
FYI--I won't have Internet access while in Michigan, but have a few posts written that will pop up while I'm out of commission.
**Why are rental cars often such heinous colors?**

have fun :)
How fun that you get to see your old pal...and have the kids get to know someone who is so special to you...
I'm sure you'll be having so much fun that you won't even miss the lack of internet access...
Enjoy your time together!
A road trip sounds fun! Is it bad that I am kinda hoping you get a heinous car just for the blog fodder it will provide? Have fun!
Yea for GR,MI!! Wish I was going too! :)
Have fun with Betsy. Did I ever tell you my mom tried to name all four of us girls in my family Betsy?
Ugly, unlikely, noticeable colors = reduced theft. Good Luck!! Enjoy.
wow! more fun! you are one busy girl!
Stop it! It can't possibly have been 2004 when Betsy came to visit! I remember that trip to Seven Peaks like it was yesterday. (Apparently my sieve-like memory functions every now and again, just to throw me for a loop.) I certainly don't remember the kids being so little then! Holy cow.
I enjoyed chatting with you while you were driving through Chicago -- but I forgot to ask what kind of rental car you ended up with...
All I have to say is, what's up with Betsy having such a pretty, tanned and toned arm? Not fair.
betsy seems like the kind of person that always makes you laugh.
when i'm without internet it bugs me at first, bet then i start to appreciate the break. when i know i have access to the internet i feel compelled to be using it.
