Over the July 4th weekend we went to my family reunion in Port Austin, Michigan. The Schwanitz farm has been in the family since the late 1800s and remains in the family due to the love and care of my cousin Matt and his wife Monica. They have spent a lot of time and money on improvements and restoration and they have really brought it back to life. I can't imagine how it feels for Dad and my uncles to be able to revisit their childhood home and see things put back to the way they were back then. We had a fantastic time, and even though I took about 300 photos, I wish I had taken more! Blogger only wants to let me show you 4 of them, so here are some of my favorites. I really like the picture of the three nails- not sure why, maybe it's the antique spider web ;)

Tina! This is such a cool family story! The photos & sign are neat, too. I hope your trip was fabulous! Sure miss seeing your latest creations!!

I still sleep on open springs like that! Sounds like a lovely time, Our family farm had been in the same family from the beginning, 1865. About 135 years. I miss it!
