We have been packing so much into so little time! Getting tired. Would be nice to have some rest before we fly back on Wednesday! This trip has gone by much too quickly. We were able to have a lot of fun at the UP State Fair on Thursday for the girls birthday. It was too hot, but they really enjoyed the animals. I thought the Antique Village was pretty interesting, but the girls were dissapointed that the rides were too expensive. If we wanted to have one ride on the ferris wheel with two adults and two girls it would have been 20 bucks! Crazy. The girls opened some really nice presents and they chose burritos for their birthday dinner.
The day after Naomi and I finished cleaning up the disgusting ruins on our property. We got the worst of it burned and taken to the landfill - two and a half truckloads full! We couldn't get all of the tiny pieces as the foam and tar paper were disintegrating, but in a couple years it will all be covered. There is a bit more trash to clean up, but the worst part is done. We also took some time to drive through Marquette and decide upon which streets we would like to live on. Who knows what this housing market will do...
My business has been really busy. Lots of problems to deal with especially as China is changing the rules for what kind of online teaching is allowed. Hopefully we will be able to stay under the radar as we can't conform with all of them at this point!
