Getaway 4 A Day

We decided to get away together for a whole day and we had such a blast! I would highly recommend this to any couple planning to add an addition. Thanks to my parents for watching Abby for one day and two nights so this could be possible!!!

We are about to head off to breakfast at Mary and John's to start the day.
Here is the bridge at the Toledo Botanical Gardens...the bridge we were engaged on 8 years ago.
Reminiscing and still so in love!

I'm leaning on the Pioneer Cabin.
This is my favorite rose...so unique and pretty.
After the gardens we ate at The Texas Roadhouse (YUM!) and went to the drive-in movies to see "Up" and "Night at the Museum II." Again, I would recommend a day away to any couple. I think it is especially important at certain times like when you will be having another baby. I hope anyone that reads this will take some extra time with the one you love!

On a side note, I have become obsessed with the web site about baby bunching. Check it out at www.babybunching.com to see what I mean. With Allen coming soon we will have two under two...oh boy! This site has great stories and advice about it that I h ave found very valuable and absolutely hilarious several times.

2009 Vacation!!

Parts of our trip were in Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. It was great to see family and do some sight seeing. Abigail really enjoyed the time playing with her little cousins.

Here she is with Devin.
The Disc Golf players - Brittany, Mike, Bill, and Brianna
Fun times on the slide were had by Lexi, Brianna, and Abby
The littlest of the Funky Bunch...Zoe
She's a little dare-devil and loving every bit of it
These two had a great time laughing so much at each other.
And tickling each other.
Here's Uncle Mike and the brood of girls

Fort Rapids water park was a lot of fun!
There were lots of great kid toys for Abby like this water swing.
