Jessica Laine recently had a 40th Milestone birthday.
(Thanks to mother-in-law Kathy Meier
for the sash and tiara.)
It took a bit of planning and alot of helpers for
three moms of 10 kiddos
to be gone for a one night getaway.
We flew in Sara from Virginia and scooped up
the Michigan classroom teachers after school.
Jessica had mentioned that a quick family trip
to Holland, Michigan was a favorite.
She didn't get to spend enough time
in that cute town.
Time to go back.
Sisters took care of decorating
and we had some fun gifts to open.
Laura hand carved a stencil block
and custom printed a beautiful towel for each of us.
Vintage Culver butterfly glasses for the win.
(the 22K gold just makes them sparkle)
We had our "vintage eyes"
all ready for the adventure.
on the Antique Trail.
We were able to find some great spots
in this picturesque and well-kept town.
Here is the list of our favorites:
We had to try out this last one
-just because. We were in Holland after all.
We found great prices and LOTS
of Pyrex goodies on our hunt.
Innovative cocktails and a yummy menu were a hit.
Beth Foreman for meeting us
at their "family restaurant".
Son-in law Andrew Westerlund and his father
are the chef duo who design the creative dishes
in this downtown delight.
A whole lot of laughing, a wee bit of fun,
and some really great memories for our day.
More shopping and we tried out
(Holland is right off Lake Michigan.)
We finished out the day with
ice cream treats at the cutest spot.
Home of the Tommy Turtle Sundae.
What a blessings are these 3 daughters.
Sara, Jessica, and Laura. (L to R)
We certainly had fun celebrating you- Jessica.
We pray that the next decade is just as awesome.
May the Lord bless you!
A special shout out to dads and Papa
who helped watch the troops for our getaway day.
LOVE LOVE LOVE - makes me wish for sisters, and of course, more time with my mom....thanks for sharing such a wonderful, memory-making event!
