Family Fun

Monday I traveled to Lafayette, IN to meet up with my mom and three youngest siblings at a life long friend's (of my mom's) house.   While the 2 1/2 hour turned three hour drive with two babies was not easy or peaceful I'm delighted to be within driving distance to friends and family!  I can't help but feel like I'm home again every time I cross from Illinois to Indiana.  It's very refreshing seeing small towns and TREES! 

Being a life long Ohio State fan (and being from Ohio) I thought that my skin might boil and fall off as I drove past Purdue University but luckily that didn't happen and I did appreciate the small town feel of Lafayette/West Lafayette.  Isaiah had a ball with his uncles and aunt.  He jumped on a big trampoline, played in a tree house, and "swam" in a delightfully warm pool!  Uncle Robby even showed him how to drive his remote control car.  It was so nice to visit with the Lake family as well.  The three girls that I used to babysit in high school are now three beautiful Godly young women who were such a help with my boys!  I was overwhelmed by the hospitality of the Lake Family and I look forward to many visits to come in the future!
