Ohio visit

This is a long post with lots of pictures.

At the beginning of June, we traveled to Ohio to surprise my grandma and grandpa for grandpa's 90th birthday.  It was awesome! I had called gma on grandpa's b-day to wish him Happy Birthday.  I told her I had sent a card and for her to be watching for it about friday the 3rd.  Little did she know, we were traveling to Ohio that day!

ellie's first plane trip! She did so well!!

Evey was a very good girl too.

We got in at 11pm on the second, so bright and early the next morning we walked over to gma and gpa's for the big surprise.

He loved that Ellie sat so good for him!

Both girls with great gpa

great gma elly came down from NY too.  Evey liked playing in the yard with her.

Lunch time! Evey picked the chair right next to great gpa.

Presents!

He got a reclining lounge chair. I don't think he likes it ;)

overall, it was a great trip. I'm glad I got to stay a couple weeks.  I want to go back already to spend more time up there. Where's the money tree when you need it? (not in my backyard, we have no tree's.....yet)
