Adventure Time

We just got back from our "adventure" to Indiana! We drove up last week, stayed in Nashville with my sister Taylor, spent a couple great days with our family in different cities within an hour of each other in Indiana and then headed home, had a quick dinner with Tay and her roommate and then got in a couple more hours before stopping for the night. Mabry thought it was so cool we got to stay in a hotel! So cute! Woke up, watched the World Cup, stopped and had a short visit with my great aunt in Montgomery and then finished our journey home. The girls really did so good in the car. I think they both had a GOOD 20 minute meltdown just outside of Montgomery, thankfully they both had their meltdown at the same time!!! There was lots of snacks, DVDS (Boz, Disney Princesses Singing, Little Einsteins and Auburn), Alphabet cards, this sweet little toy that I found at Learning Express that I think I had when I was a little girl, some sleep and mommy trying to read a book while climbing back and forth from the front of the car to the back.

The DVDS...I am looking at our collection and we have approximately 20 "kid" DVDs that Mabry could choose from. Mabry, lets watch Dora...how about Mickey? Nope ok, we will watch Boz again. I love Boz, don't get me wrong, but 2 days traveling I was kind of hoping for a little change. Mabry won't watch ANY movies and a lot of shows because she is scared. Not sure what that is all about?!?

We had SO SO SO much fun with Andy's parents, brothers, sisters-in-laws, our neices and nephews, and many more extended family members!

It was so much fun watching the girls (especially Mabry) playing with her cousins! She was acting SO big! AHHHHHH, I can't stand it, my Mabry is so grown up!

Andy's parents are having their 40th wedding anniversary in August, so we went up to Indiana to celebrate and throw them a party! It was so much fun! We had them cut the cake and feed it to each other and have a dance...so sweet! They are so special to me and my family, I am so thankful to have in-laws that I love so much and always enjoy spending time with!!!

While we were there we also went swimming, ate incredible Sundaes, ate lots of good food, played putt putt, rode go carts (hey guys- does anyone remember who won?!? hehe), relaxed, watched the girlies love on their grandparents, laughed at Briley trying to show off her walking skills...

FUN FUN times!!! To my Hanlons - love you all, thanks for a great trip!!!!
