For the second half of the second Saturday of our trip, we went to Uncle Jimmy's for a party for Grandpa (Nick's dad). We got a great shot, and the only shot, of all the cousins together. Notice how the girls have taken over!!! lol. The girls had a blast with all their cousins. I really wish we lived a little closer sometimes.
This is how we light the candles. 
Anastasia is a good candle blower outer.
DAY 9
We left Nick's parents after packing the car around 7ish and headed to mass. Then we drove to Lafeyette and this is all we saw for that two hour drive:
Corn, soy, clouds and flat flat flat. In Lafayette we got to hang out with Annie and Martin and their adorable girls. Girls girls girls!!! ;) Nick and Martin went shooting. What else would they do? We girls hung out at Annie's cottagey house and took a nice walk around Lafayette and just had a great time. Its funny how Annie and I are into the same things, and Nick and Martin are into the same things... we live parallel lives in other parts of the country. I think stopping in Lafayette on our way out of town should be a tradition! It makes leaving so much less depressing when we get to hang with good friends. :)

DAY 10
Before heading home we stopped by the German Village in Columbus. It was very neat with brick buildings and streets and a few shops. The highlight was a coffeehouse called "Cup O'Joe" which wasn't really German at all but had DELICIOUS coffee. yum yum. We stopped at Cabela's in Wheeling and with a little fussing and naps we survived. I think the best thing for the ride was the bag of Cheerios that Annie gave me. I would hand them to Isabel one at a time... and it kept her quiet and entertained for hours!! Thanks Annie!!!! You kept us from going a little more crazy than we already are! lol!
