We got a nice snowfall earlier this week, but it has all melted away. So much for a white Christmas! Very strange in Marquette. I guess we brought our depressing, Dutch winters with us. The girls had some fun in it while it lasted, though.
I made some progress on the workshop and finished getting the wood from our neighbor who died. Brought the wood rack itself over as well, and set it up as a shelf in the garage until we have space to use it properly. Now the garage is slightly more organized. Still not a priority.
Set up a dart board in the basement and the girls love it! Need to put a board around it though to protect the wall. On Thursday my parents came up to get the girls and we all enjoyed a bit dinner at Rick's house. Afterwards we walked back over to the Christmas Village. Much nicer with snow! It has been amazing to be with just the two of us for the past couple days. Hopefully we can do this more often!
On Friday we met some new friends in town for a great dinner at Iron Bay. They are friends of my friend, Andrew, who runs a coffee company. They run a tea company. He has an Indian background and she is from Iran. Yesterday, Naomi got to make another new friend - a French professor at NMU. She is originally from Russia and her husband is Belgian. Great to be making so many connections.
