Other photos from our trip...

We had such a fun visit to Indiana! Some other fun things we did were...

Take baths in Grandma's garden tub with LOTS of bubbles!

Visit our old slide in Grandma's back yard!

Snuggle our pup!

Visit Eagle Creek Park for dog walking and goose feeding!

Watch Alan play with Black Cat!

Wish Nathan a happy birthday at his zoo party!

We had an amazing time. We sure do miss our home state!

North turns 3!!!

While in Indiana we celebrated North's 3rd birthday! He had such fun opening presents and eating cake!

Darth Vader and his little Storm Trooper...


I can't believe our baby is 3!

Bloomington..

While in Indiana, we couldn't help ourselves from taking a little trip to Bloomington and visiting our old hometown. We all loved the chance to see our old stomping grounds and catch up with friends we hadn't seen in a year. It was so great for me to stop by my old office and North loved getting to see his old classmates! I neglected to take many photos but did manage to snap a few

North catching up with Ruby at Bryan Park

Grabbing dinner with Jenni, Nathan, Jen, Logan, Hans, Samantha, Ruby, Mason, and Max!

Group hug!

Visiting Bloomington sure made us "homesick" for Indiana and our old friends and colleagues.

Indianapolis Zoo...

While in Indy, we also couldn't help but visit one of North's very favorite places--the Indianapolis Zoo! Grandma, Grandpa, and Nana were able to come with us for a really fun visit.

As always, his very favorite spot was the sprinkler park.
Petting the elephant!
Racing the cheetah!

Indianapolis Children's Museum

After leaving Nana and Grandad's, we headed to Indianapolis to stay with Grandma and Grandpa. While there we also got to visit with Nanny and Papa and have our pictures taken by Sam!--while in town, we took a trip to the Children's museum with Sam, Levi, and Linc! North, as always, adored getting to spend time with Lincoln and had an amazing time exploring the museum with his pal!
Bumblebee the Transformer!

Spiderman!

Being dinosaurs!

Indy 500 drivers!

Riding the carousel!

Hanging out in the trains!

It's always great to see our best friends.

Nana and Grandad's

Over Memorial day weekend and North's birthday, Alan and I took some time off work and headed to Indiana with North for a week. It was a great time. We started the trip at Nana and Grandad's where North got to catch up with his cousins. He had a lot of fun spending time with Connor, Madi, and Clay!

North loves the ride-on toys! (Although driving them is not yet his strong suit)

And he had a great time visiting the Terre Haute Children's Museum!

Connor, Madi, and North particularly liked a little runway for racing computer simulated animals.

Celebrating his birthday with Madi and Aunt Angie who also have birthdays in late May/early June!

playing with his birthday presents with Connor! He had such a fun time at Nana and Grandad's!
