Ohio Visit

For Labor day weekend, Chris and the Kids went to visit his parents. Katie was in Alaska attending the funeral of an uncle. She enjoyed visiting again with all of her family and that put a positive twist to an otherwise sad event.

Chris and kids enjoyed their time with the grandparents and we had some major milestones. For example, Sadie learned how to ride a bike without training wheels for the first time. She hadn't even tried before but grandma brought out a bike she got from a neighbor and she jumped right on and in a few minutes she was riding all over the place!


Nearby is a farm that was hosting the National Plowing Competition! I didn't even know they had things like this - but they do! We got to watch them practicing for the big event and wander around the farm. A nice guy in a horse drawn wagon gave us a private tour around the entire farm - even taking us through some streams! The kids loved that.


Chris' sister came out from Illinios as well for the weekend and it was a great chance to catch up with cousins. Sadie and Mason loved playing with them and meeting their newest cousin Rachel for the first time.
