Honu House

This has turned out to be a fairly busy summer. First we started out with a crazy road trip to Pittsburgh, PA and back. The weekend we got home was the Olympic Swim Trials so of course we went to some of that, and during all of this the Welsh Family has been in Nebraska and spent some time with us at our house. If you want to see visually what all we've been up to, click on the pictures below for more photos!!! Road Trip 2012 Our road trip was just 7 nights (8 days) and we went a total of 2,165 miles. We went from Omaha, NE to Princeton, IL after work on day 1. Day 2 we got to Pittsburgh, PA. We ended up hanging out in Pittsburgh for a few days visiting family! Day 5 we started driving again - we left after lunch  and got to Cleveland, OH where we spent the night. Had a lovely dinner at Lola Bistro (a Michael Symon Restaurnt) and it was delicious! Day 6, took us to the Columbus (Ohio) Zoo, and then to Indianapolis, IN for the night. We didn't spend any time in Indianapoli...

Wow, I can't believe it's already nearing the end of July...Surpirsingly we have been busy this summer. Here are some photos to go along with the random things we've done so far! We attempted to attend a College World Series game, but of course with the way our summer has been going we got rained on. Good thing I remembered our Zoo pass. So we were able to sneak into some of the inside exhibits and enjoy the dry indoors - and see some wonderful animals and insects. Here we went into the new Butterfly Pavillion. They really are pretty! Giggles and Bean came to visit Grammy one weekend and fortunately I didn't have to work and didn't have anything else planned so I got to play with the girls also. First we went to the Children's Museum - Clifford was in for a visit too. The girls had a lot of fun playing around "upstairs". After playing with Clifford we went back to my house and had a little fun in the "shade" and water...it was so ...
