Spontaneous Road Trip

Sunday afternoon Lee got home from church around 3:00. About 10 min. later we got a phone call from my parents saying, "Hey, we're headed to Shipshewana, IN for the night, wanna meet us there?" So...we said, "why not?" We packed in about 15 min. and left. What we thought would be a 4 hour trip took us 5, but what's one more hour? A lot when you have a little one-year-old saying, "Done, done," the entire last hour:)

We arrived at the hotel and Isabel was THRILLED to see see her Papa and Grandma. I was thrilled when she got out of the car and ASKED if she could run across the parking lot to my dad. She also LOVED the fact that she got to go swimming at nine at night and didn't have to go to bed.

A little someone enjoyed a Queen bed all to herself

So Labor day we went into the town of Shipshewana. If you haven't been there it's an Amish town that is known for their auctions and flea markets. It was fun for the girls cause they got to see lots of livestock - horses, cows, etc. We spent morning at a HUGE flea market and found things we never knew we needed...not to mention the most delicious Amish cookies.
