Hi friends, welcome back! I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! Jon and I flew to Michigan the Saturday before so we could avoid the holiday rush, and so I could decorate my parent's house. We had a very easy flight and the Detroit airport was all decorated for Christmas. It's like they knew…

Hi friends, welcome back! It’s already time for another What's Up post. Jon and I spent the first week of August in Michigan attending Jon's family golf outing and celebrating my birthday. Jon and I drove back with all our remaining wedding presents and surprisingly, the drive back flew by. The middle of the month…
