Indiana Vacation

Well its been awhile, but in preparing for our yearly week long trip to Indiana, working on the nursery, etc. the blog went by the wayside. So I apologize.-like it really makes that big of a difference because there isn't too much to report.
Our trip to Indiana went pretty well. We broke up the trip on the way to Indiana by leaving Friday night to head to KC to stay with my parents, then left early in Saturday morning to stop in STL to not only visit my grandma and grandpa, but to get a 3D ultra sound. Michelle, my soon to be aunt, works for a 3D/4D ultrasound place and was nice enough to do an ultrasound for free. ~So thank you Michelle. It was great to visit my grandparents. I dont get to seem them often, but when I do its so nice. It always feels like I havent missed a beat with them. Well not only visiting my grandparents was nice but the ultrasound was going to be a great way to start our Indiana vacation by knowing the sex of the twins. Well Caysen(our boy) was not the most cooperative,but I couldn't blame him since Price(our little girl) was kicking him the whole time. Well I gave it away but we confirmed we are having one boy, Caysen Dean, and one girl, Price McKenzie. we were so happy and the photos we got were amazing.
So onto Indiana. there isn't much to report on the week, minus we got to go shopping ALOT since the outlet mall was roughly 10 min away, needless to say this was probably the first time I didn't have a problem with Craig golfing so much during the week. I got to go shopping every time he went golfing. He did go with me and we spent way too much money on ourselves but it was nice. Also Carmen(sister-in-law) got us the Flip video camera. It is awesome! along with the cutest piggy banks I have ever seen. They are like the old school piggy banks. (I would show a picture but we left them in Indiana since we had no room to bring everything back with us, so Craig's dad when he comes in November will bring them too us) Also she gave us a bag of bottles, and a LARGE tupperware container of clothes. Its wonderful for me because I dont care for shopping for girl clothes, so it gives me even more reasons to buy boy clothes!
Not only did we visit Carmen and the family, we got to visit Craig's Uncle Greg and Aunt Marge. They are so great to spend time with. For me I think I enjoy it more because they are outsiders looking into Craig's family too, so I feel like I can relate to them better. The visit was too short but they are coming for Thanksgiving so that will be nice. We also had dinner one night with the Pease family, and lunch with our Pastor Rob. We got to do our "yearly" marriage check up, the results are good. But its just nice to have that reassurance.
Overall we got to relax alot, but at the same time had no time to relax trying to meet up with everyone.
What will be interesting is thinking about the next trip it wont just be Craig and I and the dogs but Craig and I and the babies-most likely not the dogs. Royce is getting a little too old for the trip and he gets stiff. Cooper on the other hand can handle it but he is so senstive with his allergies that he is sick nearly a week after returning.
