Trip Day 7

We said goodbye to relatives in Ohio, which allowed them to meet my brother's girlfriend. Then we came to Pennslyvania to visit with some friends of ours who used live in Texas.

I did get a little homesick for Texas, but felt much better after talking to one of my best friends (Thanks Sarah). The meal was great, and I enjoyed listening to the stories of a long time ago or just recently. Well there is a lot to do today so until tonight.

Trip Day 6

Today was one lazy day. We ate with my cousins before they left for their home. Then I relaxed at the pool in motel with my mom.

We took a family trail of where my dad grew up. My mom locked the keys in the car while we were there. That is the only set of keys for her car. We got it unlocked with the help of locksmith.

Trip Day 5

Today was a slower pace. When out to my paternal grandma's new house, and my dad, uncle, and one of my cousins put up a storage shed for her. Plus a table and two chairs. It was nice to spend the entire day with them.

While my parents went to wash our clothes I stayed with them, and we went to a concrete cornfield that is in Columbus/Dublin area of Ohio. 7 years ago, Eva and I had gone out there for the first time and had gotten pictures of us in it. Now we have updated photos of us, and pictures of her brother, Scott, in this cornfield.

We even got to see Lisi and her husband's new place. It was a really nice place for them. We met up with my parents there. After that, we got something to eat. I will get to see Eva and Scott for breakfast tomorrow before they leave to go back to West Virginia where they live. We will see them again in a couple of days.

I leave with a couple of pictures from the cornfield.

Trip Day 4



What a long day! At least today I was able to sleep in until 9:15 eastern time this morning. The wedding was beautiful. I did mess up a little bit on my music, but everyone thought that it was lovely. I had a great time at the reception though. I ended up dancing with several little girls, and twirling them around. In the first picture is at the church with my cousins (Lisi is the bride and Eva is in the lavendar dress). In the second picture was trying to catch the bouqet (I didn't catch it).

Trip Day 3

Today I went my cousin to her appointment of a pedicure and manicure. I helped set things up, went up to the hotel to unpack the car, and get ready for the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. My main thing that I did at the rehearsal was look pretty. The dinner was great and I got a present from my cousin since I am playing my flute at her wedding tomorrow. I got to go so I leave you all with pictures from today.

Trip Day 2

Sorry that I did not post last night. The motel that we stayed at did not have internet. It was a really long day of driving (about 14 hours of driving). I was just glad to get out of the car so that I could get some sleep. We got more rain when we were in TN, but no where else. We did make it safely to Columbus, Ohio. My mom even found a better place for us to stay the rest the time we are here. Until tonight.

Trip Day One

My parents and I had a late start in getting out of town. Although this did give me a chance to clean my room and finish my packing. We left our house around 12:30 this afternoon. Even the rain seemed to follow us almost all the way to Arkansas. We are at a motel just outside of Little Rock. We got here around 11 tonight. Tomorrow is going to be another long day of driving to get to Ohio. Which means in my family getting up early in the morning. So I will leave you readers until tomorrow night so that I can get some sleep.
