Wed, 10/5/22, Went to Frankenmuth went on the riverboat ride, Kimmy, Jared and the boys and Vikki and the kids came over,, took Jacob to his music lesson


Riverboat after it dropped everybody off.  It was built and then used on the Mississippi River.  A man and his two sons bought it, had it brought here and started this business in Frankenmuth
Taking off for our ride. The limestone by the waterfall and lining the sidewalk was brought here from Niagara Falls

She was so comfy no wonder Vikki couldn't wake her up

I was doing my Bible Study for my class and Bill was taking his summer clothes upstairs and bringing cool weather clothes downstairs when Diane messaged me and asked us to come to Frankenmuth and ride the riverboat with them, then go out to lunch.  We didn't have much time, but got ready and headed there.  Bill took a short cut, but got behind someone going 25 mph and couldn't get around them.  We got to the River Place, parked and walked as fast as we could to where the boat was.  Diane and James were waiting at the ramp with our tickets.  We got there 5 minutes before it was time for the boat to go.  We sure were praying and so was Diane.  The riverboat ride was beautiful and so informative about the riverboat and about the history of Frankenmuth.  We found out lots of things we didn't know.  
After we got back, we went to the Marv Herzog Brewery Restaurant and at a delicious lunch.  

When we got home, Kimmy, Jared and the boys came over.  Kimmy went with me to drop off a lab test and picked up Vikki's favorite ice and filled it with water for her.  Vikki and the twins were at my house when we got home.   Bill was hooking up the trailer to go pick up a pool table Vikki was buying.  The guy couldn't be there at the time he said, but Vikki got it set up so it worked out for everyone to go and help.  I took Peyton and Isaac to McDonalds, then took them to their Youth Group.
Jared brought Jacob back to my house to get his backpack and instrument for his lesson.  I took him to his lesson and waited around until he was done which was at 9:15.  We headed to Vikki's and helped some with the pool table.  The guys were recovering it and did a great job.  Kimmy did some perfect stitching that amazed us, and then everyone got the pool table together.  Bill and Adam sure enjoyed playing a game on it.  It's so nice and will be super nice for kids and adults both to play.  It is in a perfect spot with nice lights above it.  We are so blessed how all of our family helps each other out.  

Vikki tried to wake Peyton up to show her the pool table because she went to bed so good and asked if Vikki would wake her up.  She was too comfy as the picture shows and didn't get up.
