Ohio Again! Woohoo!!!

(I got a little video and picture happy this time but they are super cute!!)

We were able to go out to Ohio last week. It was so much fun! We actually got out and did stuff instead of just vegging out like we usually do! Aside from seeing my fam, a lot of Bryan's fam was out there the blessing of his cousin Melissa's little girl Anna. It was fun to see some of his Utah family that we don't get to see that often! Sorry no pics of that! One day out there we went to the Children's Discovery Garden. This place is absolutely fantastic!! There are tons of flowers and activities for the kids, music makers hidden in a little maze, a water pump where they can fill up water cans and water everything, caves to explore and waterfall and a little stream to play in! The kids had a total blast! This was in the sensory garden, it totally plays dead when you touch it! I want one, it is so cool! The grounds around the children's area was absolutely beautiful-I wish my backyard could look like that!

We also went to one of the best parks! The Super Park on base. They have little walkways although this all of the kids loved it! Although I must say we didn't stay too long-it was hot and the wood totally soaks up the heat, it was twice as hot in the playground as it was just a few feet away at the picnic tables!! Poor Bryan got roped into climbing all through it with Lacey and then had the occasional "Hey Dad help me with this from Abby and Dylan! We also went to Carriage Hill Farm. We were sadly disappointed in the animal department although we did see a horse/cow/pig (hahaha! thats for you mom!!!!) In the visitor center they have a kids play area with chalk and slates t write on, a kitchen stocked with pioneer stuff. Abby, Dylan and Lacey loved it!! Funny enough the thing that got the most attention was this huge stuffed cow laying on the floor!

My parents have a full length mirror that Lacey was just entranced by. She would spend a good 20 minutes at a time laughing, dancing, and talking to herself! Totally funny! Everyone had a great time. I think even Bryan had fun this time, I think he usually gets a little bored, but he needed a nice break before he started school again! So all in all good times for everyone!
