Another Michigan Trip!

Another trip for the Khoury Family! We flew out to Michigan on Wednesday night. We are going to one of my best friend's wedding this weekend in Ann Arbor. Before the wedding festivities, we wanted to spend some time with Tim's parents. Miles got to play with his grandparents today. He's having a good time so far - exploring their house, dancing around, playing with all of the toys here from Papa's childhood, and eating lots of food! We try to get as much in in our Michigan trips as we can.

US Open Women's Finals

This past weekend, we headed to the City to hang out with my friends Melissa and Daisy. The 3 of us watched the US Open Women's Finals! Tim and Miles hung out in the City. It was such a great experience and an amazing match to watch! We had fairly good seats and saw the game nicely! Before the match, Andre Agassi was recognized. And Andy Roddick did a little speech for him. That was a nice surprise!

The match was supposed to be on Saturday night but since there was a tornado (!!) - it got rescheduled to the next day at 4:30pm. It was pretty cool to watch a day turn night game! =)

Since we didn't have a game to watch on Saturday, we all hung out in the City during the day. At night, my friends took me out for a little pre-birthday celebration. It was so fun to hang out with them. I really do have wonderful friends. Such a memorable birthday weekend!

It was fun hanging out and walking in New York City. We rode the train from Connecticut and we stopped at Grand Central Station. It is such a beautiful station. Would have been cool to see a mob dance happen there! hehe

Where did Summer go??

The air got crisp overnight! Where did summer go? 

It has definitely been a very busy season. We traveled so much and to so many different places. Over Labor Day weekend, we took a little family trip to Vermont. Tim and I went skiing in Vermont years ago but we never got to see too much of the state when we went. Vermont makes state #11 for Miles! Our little traveler was great. He slept and traveled well. He's always been so alert but during this trip, I feel like he was really noticing everything! 

We drove around Vermont.. stopped at cheese farms/stores, random farm stands, and a surprise waterfall off the road. Vermont is gorgeous. It was so lush and green everywhere. The mountains were just filled with trees. They look like broccoli since there were so many all clumped together. We saw lots of animals during our drive and while stopping at some farms. Miles loved the sheep we saw at one cheese farm we stopped at. It was very cute to see his reactions. We also visited the Ben & Jerry's Factory and did their factory tour. They give you a pretty big sample of ice cream at the end of the tour. We also stopped at Woodstock just for kicks. It's just a small town. Nothing really special =P It was a great family outing. Lots of driving but it was relaxing and the view couldn't be beat! Speaking of driving, from our last restaurant stop in Vermont all the way to our driveway, Miles was "talking" and singing the entire time! Who needs a radio when we got Miles. ; )
