Feeling...cough cough...so...cough...sick!

I played hookey this week and it felt SOOOO good! :)

Tuesday night I went over to mom and dad's for dinner and then we sat out by the fire pit to enjoy the crisp cool evening. As we were sitting there, we were talking about the weather and knew that Wednesday would be the last nice day we had for a while, because a cold front was coming thru and they were predicting the temp to drop drastically on Thurs, not to mention the fact that it was supposed to rain as well. We started talking about how neat it would be to take one last boat ride up the river to look at all the pretty fall leaves, and then decided to make it happen. I woke up bright and early on Wednesday to be sure that I called before my boss got there (sneaky I know) and left her a message saying I would not be in that day, then I headed over to mom and dad's. We had such an awesome day! We went up the river to Pere Marquette Lodge, sat out on the patio overlooking the river, then had lunch. After lunch we hiked through the woods up the big hill to the scenic overlook. This was probably my favorite part of the day. I can't describe how beautiful it was walking through the woods with such pretty colors all around us! I'm so thankful that my parents are still healthy and able to do things like that. I really enjoyed spending the day with them. Love you guys :)

I will try to post some pics later - for some reason the pics are not working right now.
