First EVER family vacation!











































































A couple of weeks ago, we took our long-awaited trip to Ohio. We had never been on any kind of family trip (not even for a weekend) or vacation. Jason and I haven't even been on a trip in the last 10 years. But being a stay-at-home-mom comes with some trade-offs. Our girls had been SO excited about staying in a hotel and swimming in the pool when Gabby was having her surgery. The Campbell House in Lex. had given us a very low medical rate because of the circumstances, so we were thrilled that the girls might get to visit us and do something they'd never done before. But since things didn't work out that way, we reeeeallly wanted to make it up to them by taking them to stay in a hotel. And we also took them to King's Island! They LOVED the hotel pool. The wave pool at King's Island was another favorite, as they'd never been to a water park before. McKenna had a bit of a rough time and wouldn't really ride anything (sensory issues with vestibular input), but she ADORED the water park area and would have stayed there all day. Olivia is a bit more of a risk taker and probably would have ridden the big coasters if she'd been tall enough. She and her Daddy enjoyed riding "The Flying Ace" in the kids' section. It's quite a coaster for a little one (your feet hang down), and Liv was JUST tall enough to ride. She loved it! Here are some pics from the trip!
