My trip Detroit...

I just got back from Detroit Thursday afternoon and I must say that I have really missed that city. The people, the life, the noise and most of all my beautiful daughter Emily. My heart melted when I saw her. The moment I looked into those huge brown eyes the stress of my life all but went away. If you don't have kids or have never been away from them for a period of time you wouldn't understand the joy that fills your heart when you reconnect with them again. The first thing we did when I picked her up was go get pancakes...!!!!
It's one of our favorite things to do. After that we went to the mall because make no mistake she is all girl through and through... The next morning we went to a new water park that opened up in one of the Metro parks by her house called Turtle Cove.

I was actually pretty impressed with that place we will have to go back next month when I re-visit Detroit. The hotel we stayed at only had one room available which was the jacuzzi suite so the lady was nice enough to give me a crazy discount on it so I took it.. hahaha... I told Emily it was an indoor pool so she played in it a lot. I'm surprised she didn't want to invite her friends over to swim in it.

Each morning we would head down to get breakfast and I taught her how to make her own waffles in the waffle machine thing that have at most hotels it was cute. Throw in some duck feeding and ice cream at Mr. Freeze's along with some backyard volleyball and we had a great afternoon my last day there. I can't wait to see her again...!
