Five for Fridays (for two weeks)

 Alot happened last weekend...  We were out of town, so I didn't get a chance to do a Five for Friday, so I combined them into one.  The first big thing.... pictured from above #1.  Breslin got to go to the Breslin Center for the first time in his life!  We went to Midnight Madness for the MSU Spartans, and in hopes to keep Breslin on California time, while in Michigan, we thought going to Midnight Madness would be perfect!  He absolutely loved the cheerleaders... (he's definitely a Burrill boy!)
 #2 Breslin got to meet most of his Grand Rapids Burrill family while in Michigan.  Julie, Aunt Terry, Blake, Nick, Dan, and Leesa drove all the way from Grand Rapids to Williamston to meet Breslin and hang out for only about an hour.  Thanks guys for making the trek... It truly was worth it.
 #3  Breslin finally got to meet Chayla and Darreal.  They drove out to the Michigan game from DC.  We try to meet up and plan one football trip that we both can make it to!  This one was it!
 #4 I guess is a pretty big deal as well....  In order to get to Michigan... we had to take an airplane!  Breslin's first airplane trip was when he was just four months, and he did GREAT!  We got compliments on both the flight out there and back.  It's a good thing he did great, because flying is going to be a major part of his life...
 #5 We got to meet up with my favorite people!  Anna and Lauren!  And Breslin got to meet his future wife, little Miss Teagan!
 Then some extras... Lauren, unfortunately had to work the whole weekend we were back.  Luckily we did get to hang out and spend some good quality time on Friday with her, and then we ended up meeting her hubby and parents at their tailgate spot on Saturday before the game!  Oh, how I miss and love all of them!
And the reason we went back.....  To watch Michigan State yet again beat Michigan for the fourth year in a row!  Breslin's first plane flight with mom and dad $900, Breslin's first trip to the Breslin Center - free, trip to the Student Book Store $150; tickets to the game - $150; watching MSU beat U of M for the 4th year in a row... PRICELESS :)
