We’re a little late getting these posted, but we couldn’t resist sharing a few shots we captured last night of the Lunar Eclipse! 🌙

Even through the cloud cover, the moon put on quite a show—and we were lucky enough to catch a few glimpses of it from here in Mackinaw City. 📸

Did anyone else stay up to watch the eclipse? Share your photos with us in the comments! 🌙📷

After all these years, it’s hard to think of a Mackinaw City without Sister Chris Herald.

For many years, we at Audie's Restaurant and The Chippewa Room have had the privilege of working alongside Sister Chris for weddings, community events, parties, holiday celebrations, and so many of the moments that bring people together. She has been there for our own family members’ baptisms, First Communions, weddings, celebrations of life, and just about every life event in between. At this point, we’re pretty sure she has seen more of our family milestones than some of our relatives!

She has been a constant presence in our community—kind, dedicated, dependable, and always willing to lend a hand, help make an event happen, or somehow keep everything moving when the rest of us were wondering what was going on.

And then, of course, there was that one summer when Sister Chris temporarily traded in her religious duties a few days a week for a name tag and joined the Audie’s team as a host! We were fortunate enough to have her help us out for a short time, and while we can't say we're responsible for starting a blossoming restaurant career, we're certainly proud to say we were part of her brief time in the hospitality industry.

Over the years, our relationship has grown far beyond simply working together. She has been part of countless important moments for our family, our restaurant, and our community, and we are incredibly grateful for all the years we have shared.

As she officially begins her retirement, we want to take a moment to say thank you.

Thank you for your years of dedication, for being there through so many celebrations and difficult moments, for helping bring our community together, and for putting up with all of us in Mackinaw City for all these years. That last one alone probably deserves is own retirement award!

Congratulations on your retirement, Sister Chris! You have certainly earned it.

From all of us at Audie’s Restaurant and the Jaggi Family, thank you for being such an important part of our family and our community. We wish you nothing but the best in this next chapter! ❤️

And don't worry—we'll try not to call you when we need someone to cover a hosting shift. 😉

On behalf of the entire Audie's family, we extend our deepest condolences to the Terrian family following the passing of Leo Terrian, who was laid to rest this past weekend. We were honored to welcome Leo's family and friends to Audie's on Saturday for a memorial luncheon celebrating his life.

Leo was a cherished part of the Audie's family for many years. Whether he was stopping in for a mid-day cup of coffee or enjoying a Nibbles-&-Bits in the Welcome Lounge, his visits always brought smiles, laughter, and great stories.

At Audie's, we often say we're more than a restaurant—we're family. The Terrian family has been part of the Audie's family for three generations. Leo's wife, Bea, who survives him, was a beloved Family Room waitress for many years. His daughter, Janet, continues that tradition today and has served as both a waitress and our bookkeeper. Several of Leo's grandchildren have also been part of the Audie's family, working summer jobs with us throughout their school years.

Leo, thank you for the countless conversations, stories, and laughs you shared with all of us over the years. Your kindness, friendship, and familiar presence will be deeply missed, but never forgotten.

Our thoughts and prayers remain with Bea, Janet, and the entire Terrian family during this difficult time. ❤️
