Back from our trip to Indianapolis

We headed up to Indy on Saturday to celebrate Terry's 30th High School Reunion. It gave Hunter some time to hang out with his Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle. We received some sad news on Friday night. Terry's beloved cousin Doris passed away after battling cancer for 4-5 years. She was 53 years old and left behind a husband, two daughters, three grandchildren and her mom. We ended up staying in Indy until Tuesday and drove from Indy to the funeral in Ohio.

Since we were in Indy an extra day, Hunter and I got to see Jaxon! We picked him up in the morning and went to Monkey Joe's. It is an indoor inflatable bounce house. Except for the fact I fell out of one of the

bounce houses backwards while trying to take a pictures, we had a fun time. Hunter and Jaxon ran and jumped for about 3 hours nonstop. It was a load of fun!

Tuesday morning we left at about 6:00am for the funeral in Ohio.It was such a beautiful service. I was especially touched by the bus drivers who lined up to pay their respects as the funeral procession went by. Even the construction crews stopped work and removed their hats as we drove by. Good people.

After the funeral, we started on our 6 hour drive back to Nashville. A long day for us all, but especially for Hunter. This morning he woke up with a sore throat. It is our first sick day of the school year. I am trying to pump him up with chicken noodle soup and lots of water.

We will be heading back to Texas in about 10 days. We need to exchange some summer clothes for some fall/winter clothes. When we get back from Texas we will be off to see our dear friends in Washington D.C. with my sister and niece. We may fit one more trip in for October, but then I think we will take a little break from traveling. We'll see.
