ryan just finished a 19 day stretch of working...and after about day 12 of his chaotic schedule, we decided it was time for the kids and i to make an impromptu trip to indy. so, i packed things up and we headed west for a few days with family. we missed ryan intensely, but it was great to be surrounded by family for a couple of days.

sadly, i was incredibly negligent in taking pictures while away. however, whit and my mom did manage to capture a bit of the trip in photos...


a little apple crisp action


lily and her old navy family...


a four person deep piggy back ride. not the smartest thing we've ever done, but we did manage to hold it for a millisecond.










some special time with grandma pat. lily loved every second of it!

thank you to our amazing family for always making so much time for us and making us feel so cherished!!
