Vacations, Reunions, and lots of time in the car...

Last weekend we started out our vacation by heading up to Huron for my 10 year reunion. After lots of fun there, we embarked on our vacation with our destination being Tammy's house on day one.

After spending Sunday night at Tammy's house, we hit the road on Monday driving through Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, and ending up at Great Grandma Fannie's house in Clayton, OH. The traveling went fairly well though we did have a few moments when we felt like the Griswold's, namely when Lauren threw up in the backseat and when we almost ran over a dog at a rest area.


It was a good thing that we got there when we did, because the girls really needed to get in a game of ring around the rosey!


As soon as we got to Grandma Fannie and Aunt Elaine's house, the girls were very excited and ready to swim in their pool.


On Tuesday, we played tourist and visited the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, OH and checked out the exhibit of WW1, WW2, Vietnam Era, Cold War Era, and Presidential airplanes.

Below is a picture of Stacey and the girls outside the Air Force One that was used for Presidents Kennedy though Regan. It is the plane that President Kennedy's body was flown back to Washington D.C. and LBJ was sworn in after the assasination.

Luckily Lauren was around to help Great Grandma Fannie with one of her daily tasks, of feeding the goldfish. She was quite helpful, as you can imagine.

After two very nice days of spending time with Great Grandma Fannie and Aunt Elaine, we were on the road again, heading towards Nashville.
