Labor day weekend

we spent labor day weekend in Michigan. it was great to be able to get there is just anout 3:30 hours. we spent some time with my folks and some with mike's. Mike ran a 30K (~18.6 miles) in milford. he did very well. he placed 4th in his age group and 23rd overall with a time of 2:06:47 (that translates to a 6:49 min/mi pace) while we were at mike's parents we got to meet our new niece, Madeline. she is very cute and still sleeps alot. anya and asia were quite taken with her. we all enjoyed the long weekend but were happy to get back home. this place is just about starting to have a homey feel to it.
