Off to Indiana

This year’s leman vacation took us to Monticello, IN. We traveled out on Wednesday and stayed at Grandma and Grandpa’s. It was fun to be there with just our family.(minus Cameron, who stayed home, and minus Aubrey who stayed at Herrmanns:) On Thursday, Mom and Dad left for Roanoke to pick up A. Karen, and then to Monticello from there. G & G, Taylor, Gabe and I took off for Fairbury, switched vehicles and grabbed the Bluniers…and so on. By supper time we had all made it to Monticello where were ate Monical’s pizza and played kickball. DSC_0469DSC_0502

At times, the game was slow and boring. Other times, the ball was kicked into poison ivy, and across the yard into the baseball diamond.

On Friday, we left in the morning to go to France Park. It had a beautiful lake, and lot of woods, where the older kids played Disc Golf. That was fun! I’m pretty sure that we all walked through poison Ivy, but I don’t think anyone actually got it.

While we played Disc Golf, the younger kids played in the beach area.
