It's been awhile and we've been all over!

I haven't blogged in awhile as we have been SOOOO busy and haven't had the right opportunity. We had a great time relaxing in Indianapolis with my aunt and family. We just chilled out, the kids played Wii a lot and I read and napped. We got to see Scott & Amy from our Stint and that was so fun too. They have a great house and Gabe & Bryce had a lot of fun playing together.
We headed out on Friday to Cincinnati, Ohio to our Kiwi staff friends' house. They are visiting for 6 weeks or so and since we were pretty close we HAD to say hi. They are really close friends and colleagues so it was fantastic to see them as it has been 18 months since our last face to face conversations. Con is one of my closest friends so it was so nice to reconnect. We just hung out and chatted most of the evening which was fun.
The next morning, Bryce and Aaron took little Elijah and went to the Dayton Airshow. It is reportedly the biggest in the country (Dayton is where the Wright Brothers lived). Anyway, while they were away playing with airplanes, Michael, Laura, Con, Olivia and I hung out at home around the pool. The kids had a blast just chilling and relaxing. It was fun! Once Bryce & Aaron got home, we headed to the Gap Outlet store which was fun. We managed to get Bryce some good deals on clothing and Aaron seems to enjoy helping Bryce keep in fashion. It was hilarious listening to the two of them. Laura and I were just cracking up with laughter.
After we got back we decided to watch a movie "Lars & the Real Girl".....hmmmmmm.....some people love it, I guess. We were a little ambivalent. It wasn't horrible, but not great either. We ended up talking till really late with Aaron so a bit tired today.
We got up early and got on the road this morning as we had to head to Iowa which meant crossing through Indiana and Illinois. We were anticipating a long day, which it was, but it went quick. We did have some drama though. I will blog about that separate.
Anyway, we met up with Aaron and Sadee from Stint in Davenport, Iowa and had dinner with them. So fun to see them and sad too as we had to say goodbye! Love you guys! Anyway, we finally got into our hotel room at 10pm (we've changed time zones today too). Unfortunately, we've ended up in a smoking room with AC that is a little dodgy and then Bryce's computer (which was accidently dropped) decided to give up its life. A little frustrating for him. It has been a long day, so I am signing off! edit
