I've been away for a bit...it started with my Daughter writing her MCAT's in Duluth Minnesota...then we went to Minneapolis to shop and get away with the kids. Then 4 days later...we left to drive my daughter back to school in London Ontario...stopped in Frankenmuth Michigan (the LO)...then we went to Toronto and back to London...then 4 days later...Hubby and I left to go to Montreal and Ottawa. That's why I've been away from my blog. Just to update you guys on my crazy few weeks.
Anyways I love how this LO turned out.

ReplyDeleteLove your layout, it's Fabulous. Frankenmuth is such a fun and beautiful place to go. I live two hours north of there. Bronner's is the best Christmas store ever, if you haven't been there and get the chance to go I do recommend it. There are so many things to enjoy there. Glad you had a great vacation.

Hey, I've been to that bridge and have a similar picture. As a former Michigan resident hubby and I used to go to Frankenmuth every year. I hope you had a chance to go to Bronner's (the Christmas Store) while you were there and have one of the chicken dinners they serve up in local restaurants. We used to buy a Christmas tree bulb for each of our five kids every year. When they moved out and started there own homes they each took their own box of ornaments with them. Now our kids have the same tradition with their kids. Fabulous SMASH page.
ReplyDeleteaww what a great page.. love that picture.. so sweet
