Road Trip!

My friends and our kids took a road trip to Owensboro, Kentucky to visit our friend, Melissa. We piled into Amy's van (3 adults and 4 children in car seats and all our stuff...it was a little tight). We drove up on Wednesday afternoon. The kids slept part of the way. When we were about 30 minutes away, they were over being in the car. So we started the sing along of their favorite songs. It was so sweet to hear all of them singing Lord's Army and Deep and Wide. Times have changed for us girls...we use to be singing our favorite songs. When we got to Owensboro, we had dinner and a baby party for Jennifer. After that, we started putting the kids to bed which was eventful.
On Thursday morning, we all headed to Holiday World for a day of fun. Jennifer and I got lucky because there is a discounted rate for pregnant women...Yeah for us! We let all the kids do the kiddie rides and then went to the water park. They really loved it. Jackson was loving the slides in the kiddie area. After a late picnic lunch, we headed home. Everyone was exhausted.

I am so glad you all were able to experience Holiday World! I hate that Carter and Seth weren't along for the ride, but I'm not sure we could have handled two more kids!! We'll have to go swimming soon...
