We spent Labor Day weekend in south Michigan completing our plan to see all of our grandparents this year. Saturday and Sunday we saw Grandma Bruno (and Ray and Jacqueline) and then spent Sunday evening in South Lyon with Grandpa Zammit (and virtually every other relative of Lexi's who could make her 13th birthday party). Spending one-on-one time with grandparents has been an interesting experience; we've learned a fair amount about them and that's unusual because it seems like grandparents are very much focused on grandkids and that cycle is rarely broken.
There's not been much else to report: sports fill evenings, with EPSD adult hoops starting tonight, and work has been very tiring. Jenelle's year with students got off to a busy start at WAHS today. College football fired up and brought joy to our home for the first time in awhile. We were on campus with Justin Saturday night in East Lansing and it seemed like fall in the midwest, something we were missing.
