Fun Day!

Well Chuck finally took the time out of work to go and just have a fun day with Abby. We started out by eating at one of the local summertime ice cream establishments, The Corral. Then we traveled to Jamestown and went to Deer Park. Deer Park has been around for a long time; I can remember going there myself as a little kid. Abby really enjoyed feeding all the animals. We rode the train around the park and even convinced Abby to go for a pony ride. She was hesitant the first time we asked her and even said no. Once she went though, she really seemed to like it. After Deer Park, we went to the Linesville Spillway, to feed the fish and ducks.
Anyone not from our area would never understand the amount of carp that there are in one lake. There are thousands of fish that congregate in one area and they are so thick that the ducks can literally walk on the fish's back to get to the bread. After this we drove to Conneaut Lake Park (a small amusement park that everyone went to when we were growing up) and found it to be closed and in major disrepair. Then we headed to Sheetz and got a slushie and headed home. It was nice to finally have a fun day out with Abby.

Too Adorable!

Abby has a touch of jealousy when Paul's around. She doesn't like to lose any of mom's attention. I think she's tired of getting her picture taken also. They just shouldn't be so cute.

First Time on the Boat

It was Abby and Paul's first time on our boat. These two little ones are so much fun. We are so blessed to have them in our lives. I can't wait to see how exciting everything gets as they grow older together.

New Pictures of Grandson

Isn't he just the sweetest thing? His grandma loves him so much!

So Adorable!

Thanks for the beautiful dress, Miller family.

Some pictures since we've been home

This kid sure loves to eat

Abby enjoyed grandma's spaghetti as much as the rest of us always have. I think she got just as much on her as she did in her. She definitely belongs in our family.

Some New Pictures

Abby likes to play with her new F.P. store.

Ready for church

All ready for her first time in church.

We Made it Home

We did finally arrive home on Friday, March 16 after too many hours of travel. We were supposed to fly into Pittsburgh Thursday night but as we were going through the customs line at Newark International Airport we found out that our flight had been canceled due to the weather. What weather? As we had flown in there was no mention of bad weather and it was 50 degrees. All the chatter in the lines suggested that a winter storm was headed for New Jersey and no one would be getting out on their flights until Friday afternoon at the earliest. One of the airport employees at the counter suggested to us that we rent a car and drive home ahead of the storm, since we may not be able to get out until Saturday, possibly Sunday. So thats what we did. Of course, no one was up to driving 8 hours home after all the flying we had been through, but we took turns and arrived home around 3:30 in the morning. We had beat the storm. And it was great to be home and even better to see Amy and Bailey who had come home earlier in the evening. I sure did miss them. No more time away for me for awhile.
