indiana trip

just prepare yourself people i was gone for 2 weeks! i went to Indiana because my oldest brother graduated with his masters in engineering from Purdue!! yeah for him.....and they just had a new baby and we got to see my grandma!! anyways it was a lot of fun! chase came for the weekend and i stayed for another week and a half to help watch kids and then i went to visit my best friend from high school! i had a blast! enjoy the photo overload!


Emma an AMAZING flyer! she slept the second
leg there and back! she was such a great child!


- me and my sister just hanging out at my brothers
house with the kids-


-Emma loved wrestling with her cousins!-


-Matt was the greatest with the kids he was
sticking them in the laundry basket and swinging them around
.....needless to say they loved it-


-on a late night out with just me and my brothers
we had to stop at long johns, Emma gave me her best pirate face-



-unfortunately my daughter LOVES frosting and Reece's graduation cake was black and yellow..... that is what happens when you eat frosting in so many colors....GROSS-


-again the sweet cousin playing around!-


the girls in the family , Becca, Emma, and Danielle


- my cute little pregnant sister showing Emma how to do yoga!-

so we went to 2 zoo's while we were there the first was just meg and i and the 3 older kids.
it was the Colombian zoo/ park. they had a little petting zoo and some monkeys and then just a million play sets.....it was drama leaving but we had a lot of fun~

- we have a million of these pictures but i thought one would suffice -


-they had a cute little archaeological dig spot for the kids-


-Emma's favorite park was petting the pony's and goats.
they were so sweet to let the little kids bug them-


-Nathan loved being spiderman that day-


- this is just before we left and Emma is already to throw a fit!
but look how cute Becca is!-


so after everyone left to their homes my dad and i had a day to kill before i went to my friends so he took us to the Indianapolis zoo! it was soooo nice! my camera was almost out of battery so we only got the first part of the zoo but they had the coolest stuff. they had a dolphin show and a petting zoo and an elephant show....it was so nice! oh and we all got to pet sharks!!! it was really the best zoo ever!


-waiting in line to ride the horse and pony. my dad was smart and got 2 tickets so she could ride both!- she was in heaven riding the horses! she takes after her momma-





-this was where they kept the horses that weren't being used yet and Emma could have pet them all day, the donkeys on the other had i would not allow to be pet....gross.-





so here are the only 2 pictures i have of being at Amanda's house! they don't have very many singles so they all know each other and on the missionaries p-days they all get together and play games! they were nice enough to let Emma play and i must say she wasn't too bad! she looked so big playing though, its really freaking me out how big she is!


so for those of you that lasted this long, congratulations! you now know the fun stuff i did while you were at home....hahaha just kidding but seriously we had a blast!
