Vacation!


Well we actually went on vacation this summer that wasnt to the Smith's lakehouse. Not that I dont enjoy a free vacation every year it was nice to go somewhere different. This year Scott's cousin Josiah was getting married up in Conneaut OH (NE OH for those who have no idea where that is!) on July 4th so we decided to go there for our vacation. We actually rented a hotel and stayed 5 days! It was awesome! We are normally campers but with the pregnancy and two under 3 we decided a hotel would be better. Anyway, on the way we stopped in Fort Wayne to help our friends the Biedenbachs install a new water heater and water softener. I enjoyed holding there newest member not even a week old! That definitely made me excited to hold our newest soon! Then we stopped to visit the Smith's before heading out the next day for OH/PA! Our 5 hr drive took us 8 hrs bc of a potty training child and a child with a very difficult diet (which Ill explain later). Oh yah and Ryan throwing up all over the back of the car took 45 min to clean up! Other than that the girls really did well without a whole lot of entertainment for the ride. We had a great time at the wedding seeing family that we hadnt seen in 4 years! On Sunday July 5 (Ryan's bday) we spent the day at the Ring's farm. Ryan and Bekah had a blast! They have a total of 13 kids and lots of animals to see so the girls had plenty of entertainment!They also sang happy bday to Ryan which made her day! Then our final day there we spent some time on the beach of Lake Erie. The water was only 65 degrees but the girls still had a good time with their daddy! I think they enjoyed the giant sand box the most though! Finally, we traveled home with two completely exhausted girls and our 6 hr drive took 9 hrs! Within ten min of our drive a came down with a migraine as frustrating as that was we were so thankful I was migraine free the during the fun part of the trip! Here are some pics!

Hugs from cousin Simeon!
