INDIANA











Oh my goodness we had the best time visiting Jenna. I totally didn't want to leave. It was funny because as we were driving away Brianna asked why I always cry when I leave my family. I explained to her how I just love them so much and I hope she feels the same way about us when she is grown up. Anyway, Jenna was such an amazing host! We were totally pampered the whole time. The kids loved being there. Brian jr cried when we left and said "but I want to live here." Some of the highlights of the trip were finding amazing deals at Hobby Lobby (90% off-Jenna and I were literally fighting over stuff--I have a bruise on my arm from her), eating at Bajio twice, painting our nails, Brianna's slumber party with Maddy, hair cuts and color (hooray for that), Jenna's super yummy gourmet cooking, Cracker Barrel with Dad, Nordstrom, Matt going to the store to buy earplugs, and Christmas for the kids with Opa and Grandma. I had to drive home by myself with three kids but it was totally worth it. The kids were really good and despite the crazy snow storm I drove through all was well! Thanks to all my friends who chatted with me on the phone and the earplugs Matt gave me the trip went by really fast.
