Campaign Event in Brooklyn, MI

As you may or may not know, our dad, Mike Shirkey, is running for the Michigan House of Representatives 65th District position. There was a campaign event in Brooklyn, MI this week where my brother, Daniel, and my sister, Marilyn, and I all were able to attend.

Kelley and I did make it to Ann Arbor...about 9 days ago. All is well. I had my first week at work and Kelley has found a volleyball team. It seems pretty weird to be back in MI, but it is good.

I just spent about 30 minutes downloading some software to my new work laptop...one of my coworkers in Australia was helping me. It is Sunday night in MI but it is Monday morning in Australia.

This photo is from the built in camera on my laptop...so, i'm getting more techy i guess...

Best to all.

Another Goodbye Meal with Friends...

Andy and Betsy Zenz joined us for lunch on Sunday. What a joy it was spend some time with them and their 3 daughters. Below is Betsy and Eden with Kelley.

Here is Andy and Haven in his lap and Mercy in my lap.
We met them at a "Himalayan" restaurante called Sherpas which was the first restaurant we visited when we arrived in Boulder during the summer of 2007.

Daniel and Amanda in Colorado!

Here they are. They made it. Daniel and Amanda just squeezed in a trip to Colorado prior to Kelley and I taking off. Here they are arriving at the airport.

We headed up to Rocky Mountain National Park and enjoyed some sunshine near this mountain top lake.

Of course we saw some elk.
