Weekend Trip

If you were wondering where we have been the last few days it has been a whirlwind of excitement in our house. Last Friday the 12th I packed the kiddos up and with my mom we headed to Ohio for my cousins bridal shower. Yes Zach was invited mind you the only boy there. I dont think he minded much. We also had the chance to visit the outlet mall close by and ride the train. Fun times. We also visited with my friend forever Michele and her family. The kids thought is was fun to enjoy someone else's toys. We were fortunate enough to stay with close family friends who had a dog. Which Zach and Emily feel in love with. Zach even told hubby when we got home that he would like a "Molly dog like in Ohio" We will be working on this over the next few months. The kids cracked me up over the weekend. Where we were in Ohio is very rural and what I call cow country. It was warm so the windows were down and the farmers were spreading manure. Well the kids did not enjoy the smell. We dont have that smell here in MI. So when asked what that smell was I responded the fresh country air. Well Emily took this to heart. When Zach commented later in the weekend. "It is stinky here" Emily in her know it all fashion responded. "Zachary it is the fresh countryside". Who says they dont listen! All in all we had a great time. The kids rode great in the car( What did we do before DVD players? I feel for my parents) we enjoyed visiting with some people we had not seen for awhile and Hubby enjoyed a few days of solitude!
