Saturday we attended the Graduation and Call Service at MLC. Michael was assigned to be the 4-8 grade teacher and principal at the WELS school in Hopkins, Michigan. He pointed out that although in the opposite direction (of us and Matthew and Kristi) it keeps Mom and Dad in the middle making it easier for everyone to come home for holidays. We figure we have a new vacation destination. Fun, fun, fun. Over all the two days were GREAT! We stayed at the ever hospitable Heidtke Hotel (aka Kristi's parents' house) which is just few blocks from MLC. We were able to walk to campus for all the events there. The Heidtkes helped host a graduation luncheon for Michael for the whole family and a fun collection of friends too. The kids thrived on the constant attention and lived though "church" twice in one day. We didn't get around to leaving until about 7pm CST since we couldn't leave without a round of disc golf with the party goers.
Maybe it is crazy to spend 37 hours away from home and about 15 of them in the van but we wouldn't have missed it for anything. CONGRATULATIONS MIKE!!! :)
