Fall 2011


Just finished our Fall display. Thanks to the farmers for leaving some corn stalks behind and for lots of bull rushes and tall grass along Michigan highways all we had to buy were the pumpkins.


Fall is here and can snow be far behind? My best season of the year is Fall eh.

Rachel and Allison Piano Recital


On Saturday, September 17th we were invited to hear Rachel and Allison perform a variety of pieces played on an electronic keyboard. They have been taking piano lessons for 3 years and their teacher decided to have them perform outside for family and friends. Allison and Rachel are the daughters of Daryl and Tammy McMullen and of course two of our great grandkids.

This is the program. You can see there were 5 fellow musicians who performed with them.


Allison was responsible for organizing the program including developing invitations and program. Good job Alli.


Friends and family brought heir lawn chairs and enjoyed a picnic lunch before the musicians performed.


Rachel played 5 pieces. She appeared very much at ease and did a great job on all her pieces.




Allison performed two pieces and again she did a great job.





Abby Callender, a close friend of Rachel and Allison, also performed a piece. She did a great job as well.


This is the piano Instructor helping Abby get setup to play.


All the kids did a great job and we enjoyed fine food as well as great music.
