"Nobody reads the blog anyway"

It seems like just last week that I was wrapping my head around the thought of living and working on Mackinac Island and now it will be a month tomorrow that we have been working on the island, so I thought I would give this blogging thing a try. Instead of updating with everything that has happened the past month I will just post some funny quotes for now.

Christine to Me: "You're the least funny person that I know"

Emmalilly: " I am really witty"

Christine after making her bed perfectly: "I am really good at making beds, thats why my friends like me."

Customer in store: "Hey you look familiar"
Emmalilly: " I am Emmalilly Hoxsie."

Christine to me: "Morgan we are going to kill you in your sleep and take all of your money!"


Smoothies.

What's the perfect recipe for a smoothie? Is there a perfect ratio of yogurt, fruit, ice, juice, milk? Isnt it the point of smoothie to just throw anything extra in the fridge together and start blending. Today we had strawberries, peaches, frozen blueberries (I think), vanilla yogurt, and milk. When I say peaches, I mean lots of peaches! Anyway, it all blended fabulously!! yummy healthy evening snack:)

Life is like a smoothie. Working with what you have and making it work.  

Last week we had lots of visitors to the island! Friends from State and friends from home, everyone had a great time. We got dressed up one night and adventured to the Grand Hotel. As we rode past the bluff we just had to stop and take pictures, the sunset was amazing!
