Greg and I both usually have Fridays off from work now giving us a three day weekend. We try to get the work done around the house on Friday allowing us to enjoy a weekend. This weekend was no exception to that. Saturday morning we started our day with our weekly visit to the lake to see Greg's Ma and Dad. We decided about a year ago as long as we are blessed to have them in our lives we would make a point to visit each week. So after our morning visit we headed to the rail to trail located in Otter Lake. We rode our bikes to Columbiaville which is about 5 miles and had lunch and then did the return trip. Greg has been riding Michael's bike that he used while in Kalamazoo a few years ago. That bike had seen its better days so after the bike ride we decided it was time for Greg to get a new bike. Greg purchased a schwinn bike and I got a new seat for my bike, which use to be Becky's bike. So Saturday evening we took a ride through Davison. As the evening came to a close we visited the Pearsalls. I had made a weight watcher apple/blackberry pie using phyllo pastry instead of crust. The pie was a success and I will make another one soon.
Today we headed to the Renaissance festival in Holly. No kids we did not dress up this year but we had a nice day. The temperature was around 68 degrees so it was very comfortable to walk around in. Greg wanted to get a new walking stick but he never found one that he liked as well as the one he has. The festival is getting larger every year and has always been one of the few places that Greg likes to go to each year and it was great walking for me.
When your children grow up and start lives of their own it is a wonderful feeling to know that you and your spouse still very much enjoy each other.
