The Enchanted Mitten

We are in Midland, Michigan this week visiting our brand new niece, Megan Lynn Frame.



Here's a picture from the airport yesterday. Can you tell that Jackson is a little bit excited? If you have talked to me in the last couple of weeks, you probably know how nervous I was about getting to the airport in time for our 7:15am flight. We didn't get much sleep the night before and the boys went in their pajamas, but we made it.



One of the cool things about being a parent is getting to experience everything again as a "first" through your child's eyes. Imagine being 3 years old and seeing this for the first time. Pretty amazing...





Mat's sister's family (Jenny, Steve, Megan, and Ben) live here. Jenny works for Dow Chemical. This morning they took us to Dow Gardens which is a beautiful park. Here are some pictures of the kids exploring the vegetable garden.





The grounds of this place are very beautiful, and it was nice to get outside in this cool weather.



Jackson and his cousin Ben are almost exactly the same age. They always have so much fun together. We're so happy to finally come visit their home in Michigan.




More pics to come!!
