The 8th Best Burger in America

Granted, the rating came from GQ magazine (and Oprah), but we figured we'd give it a shot because after all 8th is pretty good.

Let's see...

Happy Halloween

I-C-E-C-R-E-A-M Ice Cream!

A couple of weeks ago, we went out to an ice cream parlor with a couple of our friends. They warned us that the servings were huge, but we were out for the challenge. Brad ordered a banana split. It came with 6 baseball sized scoops of icecream, 2 bananas, and toppings. I ordered a turtle sundae with 3 baseball sized scoops, brownies, pecans, and carmel sauce. I have to admit, it was a challenge, but we managed to eat all of that icecream! Brad was sick for a little while afterward, but thankfully, he recovered quickly while keeping all of that fattening and lactose filled icecream down. Yum!

Henry Ford Museum

We also spent a day at the Henry Ford Museum. If you are wonding about some of the pictures, my parents are making out in the back seat, the chair is the chair that Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in, the cot is George Washington's slept while fighting for our freedom, my mom and I are sitting in the seat Rosa Park refused to give up, I am an Oscar Mayer wiener. We had a day of learning, appreciation, and fun!

Dexter Cider Mill

While my parents were in town, we took them to a local cider mill for some fall fun. I was a little disappointed as locals all suggest going to this mill, but we faired ok. (Mostly because the town was having "Dexter Days"- and no, I couldn't talk Brad into doing the pie eating contest... bummer).

Dadio's Bday

My dad turned 70 this year. Yep, 70. And he decided to come visit us for this landmarked occasion. (I know it was a sneaky ploy to get away from burning down the house with all those candles and a party where walkers would be the duplicated gift, but who cares). We had fun celebrating with him. Happy b-day Dad!
