What is round on the sides and hi in the middle???

OHIO!!!!

(Please excuse this obnoxious joke from my childhood :)

Last week my mom, the girls, and I traveled to Ohio to visit some of our amazing family out there. We had such a wonderful time. We spent so much time (but of course not enough) with my great aunt and uncle and a bunch of cousins. We shopped at an oulet mall and indoor flea market, ate, traveled to Amish country (which is fascinating), celebrated my great aunt's 75th birthday, ate, worked outside in the yard, played, relaxed and did I mention we ate? A lot. When we were in Amish country Allie and I got to sit in a real Amish horse-drawn buggy, definitely a once in a lifetime experience. And we enjoyed the wonderfully cold and rainy weather...such a change from the heat and dryness of home. I love going back there and seeing where my mom grew up and where I would go to visit often when I was growing up. The girls were both total champs on our LONG travel days. Allie watched movies on our portable DVD player (a God send!) and Sienna slept several times in my Moby wrap. I was so worried about our travel and so thankful they did so good! Our family made us feel so loved the entire time we were there, we already miss them! (And can't wait to go back again!)

I took a ton of pictures so here's a slideshow of the best ones :)



***Oh and the quote of the week came from my precious 2 year old...she did NOT want to take a nap one day and was crying, in between breaths she said the following to my mom..."Memaw, I want to go home. Where's the airport???!!!" We all still can't stop laughing!
